Behavior Mentor - Sports Coaches

SPORTS COACHES - READY FOR A NEW CHALLENGE? BRING YOUR SKILLS INTO EDUCATION!

Have you got a background in sports, coaching or fitness and fancy taking your career in a slightly different direction?

Your skills could be exactly what we're looking for!

Here at Academics, we work closely with specialist SEN and SEMH schools across East Sussex who are looking for enthusiastic, confident and motivated individuals to support students with behavioural and additional needs on a full-time basis.

We're particularly interested in hearing from people with backgrounds in:

• Sports coaching and PE instruction.

• Football, rugby, basketball and other team sports.

• Personal training and fitness.

• Youth work and activity leadership.

• Sports development and mentoring.

Why make the move into education?

Your ability to motivate, encourage and engage young people can make a huge difference in a school environment.

You'll use your existing skills to build positive relationships, encourage teamwork, promote positive behaviour and help students develop their confidence and self-esteem.

What we're looking for:

• Previous experience in sports, coaching, fitness or working with young people.

• A confident, patient and resilient approach.

• Someone who can build positive relationships and encourage engagement.

• The ability to motivate students and manage challenging situations.

• A genuine interest in supporting young people with additional needs.

Previous school experience isn't essential - we're interested in your transferable skills and enthusiasm!
