Behaviour & Inclusion Support

East Leeds
๐Ÿ“ Start: July & September | โฐ Full-time | ๐Ÿ’ท Pay based on experience and qualifications

Be the one they remember.

The calm voice.
The steady presence.
The person who makes school feel safe again.

We’re looking for Behaviour & Inclusion Support staff to join a specialist setting in North Wakefield. This is a place where young people who’ve been excluded, unwell, or let down by mainstream education get another chance. A proper fresh start.

And that starts with you.


๐ŸŽฏ What you’ll be doing

  • Supporting KS3 and KS4 students as they settle into a new environment

  • Working 1:1 or in small, close-knit groups

  • Helping young people who communicate differently or need clear structure to feel seen and understood

  • Staying grounded when emotions run high, showing there’s always a calm adult in the room

This isn’t about “managing behaviour”. It’s about understanding it.


๐Ÿ‘€ You’ll thrive here if you:

  • Stay calm when things escalate, you don’t take it personally

  • Understand that behaviour is communication

  • Believe every young person deserves a reset, not another rejection

  • Bring consistency, warmth, and clear boundaries


๐Ÿงพ What you’ll need

  • An enhanced DBS on the update service, or be happy to apply for one with us

  • Two recent references

  • A solid understanding of safeguarding

  • A big heart and steady presence


๐ŸŽ“ Why join Protocol Education?

๐Ÿ’ฐ Weekly PAYE pay, no umbrella deductions or “mystery maths”

๐Ÿ“š FREE access to our CPD Academy, including Team Teach and Thrive training

๐Ÿค A dedicated consultant who actually listens and understands specialist settings

๐ŸŒฑ Roles where you’re part of the school team, not just filling a gap

Not Thrive trained yet? No problem. We’ll get you booked onto our FREE Thrive training so you can strengthen your toolkit and stand out even more.


This isn’t just a job.

It’s a chance to change the trajectory for a young person who really needs someone in their corner.

If that sounds like you, let’s talk.
