Do you see the potential in children who don’t always fit the mainstream system?

We are looking for a caring, resilient, and empathetic Learning Mentor to join Five Education with a view to supporting a busy Alternative Provision and their children. This role is centred around the child's wellbeing whilst supporting them with their education. We are looking to recruit someone who will help support a child, unlock their potential as a learner through positive reinforcement, and help them feel valued and understood whilst at school.

Many of the children you’ll support may have experienced challenges such as exclusion, disrupted education, anxiety, or difficult life circumstances. Sometimes, a relibable person who shows up every day to give them the best possible learning is all they need to help turn their education around.

About the role:

As a Learning Mentor, you will work closely with children and young people both on-site and in the community, offering tailored support that helps them re-engage with learning and build confidence in themselves.

You’ll be a trusted adult who:

Builds strong, positive relationships with learners who may struggle to trust

Supports emotional regulation, behaviour, and engagement with learning

Delivers one-to-one and small group mentoring

Encourages life skills, resilience, and positive decision-making

Works alongside families, schools, and professionals to support each child holistically

What we’re looking for:

Experience working with children or young people in alternative provision, SEMH, youth work, mentoring, or similar settings

A calm, patient, and empathetic approach; especially during challenging moments

The ability to be consistent, firm but fair, and emotionally available

A full, clean driving licence and access to your own car (essential, as the role involves travel to different settings and community locations)

Strong communication skills and a genuine passion for supporting young people

If you think this could be a job for you, please get in touch to find out more from Brett at (phone number removed). We are always available for an informal chat if you want to find out more about whether this role is suited to you.

Pay: Five Education operates a PAYE payroll; this is the most transparent way to be paid with no hidden fees such as admin fee or employer's NI. Please note pay rate is for illustration and does include holiday pay.

Vetting: Five Education is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all of the staff we employ to share this commitment. Successful applicants will be required to undergo checks including reference checks, TRA checks and will need to have a DBS; there will also be an interview.

We welcome and encourage job applications from people of all backgrounds. We particularly welcome applications from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) candidates as they are currently under-represented at this level.
