In the early morning you arrive at our historic campus, nested in a green, nature-rich environment. After you’ve grabbed a good cup of coffee, you are ready to go to class! You are experienced in bridging diverse cultural backgrounds and you are able to use differentiation effectively in class to support a range of student abilities. We look forward to welcoming you to our extraordinary school!
The job
As a Student Counsellor, you work closely with individual students to develop, implement, and monitor tailored support plans that address their academic, social, and emotional needs. You contribute to an inspiring and inclusive learning environment where students feel safe, supported, and empowered to grow, thrive, and achieve success.
You collaborate daily with parents, teachers, and external professionals such as psychologists and medical specialists to ensure a holistic and coordinated approach to student wellbeing and progress. Drawing on your strong knowledge of child development, including psychosocial and behavioural development, you apply a broad range of counselling strategies and techniques to guide decision-making, encourage positive behavioural change, and effectively monitor student progress.
You maintain an open-door policy and are available to provide immediate or emergency support when required. In moments of crisis, you remain calm, professional, and solution-focused. You are self-motivated, well-organised, and skilled in communication, conflict management, and the coordination of effective support and development plans, always placing the wellbeing of the student at the centre of your work.
