The Vacancy
At TCES National Online School, we deliver therapeutic education virtually to pupils with complex co-morbid needs, including those with neurodiverse identities and emotionally based school avoidance (EBSA), who face barriers to accessing mainstream education.
We are seeking a compassionate and dedicated Pastoral Mentor to join our innovative team. This is a unique opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the lives of pupils by providing tailored interventions that nurture academic engagement, emotional wellbeing, and personal growth.
As a Pastoral Mentor, you will play a vital role in supporting students to step down from dependence towards independence. Working closely with families, multidisciplinary experts, and our Senior Leadership Team, you will deliver 1:1 and group mentoring that empowers pupils to build confidence, resilience, and essential life skills.
If you are passionate about supporting young people with diverse needs, thrive on building positive relationships, and are committed to removing barriers to learning, this role offers a rewarding chance to be part of an organisation that changes lives every day.
The Company
TCES is an independent social enterprise, providing specialist therapeutic education based in London supporting exceptional neurodiverse children and young people aged 7 to 19 who have special educational needs and disabilities typically associated with autism, social emotional and mental health needs and associated disorders. Most of them will have experienced multiple placement breakdowns and significant trauma, often resulting in behaviour that challenges. On average pupils will have been excluded from other provisions up to three times before reaching us and had significant periods out of education.
TCES pupils learn at one of our two schools, at our Create Learning Primary, through our Create in the Community service or within our National Online School; our Create services support our most complex and vulnerable pupils, with highly differentiated and personalised holistic therapeutic education programmes developed for each pupil focusing on development milestones. When they are ready, we aim for pupils to step down from Create into one of our main school, our Sixth Form, or into mainstream provisions.
