Job Description
We’re seeking a Learning Mentor to join a welcoming primary school in Warwickshire. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working closely with children who need a little extra guidance — academically, socially, or emotionally. You’ll support pupils who may be struggling with motivation, focus, or behaviour, helping them re-engage with learning and develop positive routines. Every day will bring meaningful interactions: listening to pupils, celebrating small wins, and supporting teachers in building a nurturing classroom environment. This school places real value on staff who can bring empathy and structure in equal measure. You’ll receive strong guidance from the pastoral and SEN team, as well as opportunities for training and career development. It’s a role that suits those who believe in second chances — and in the power of calm consistency.
Job Responsibilities:
Provide 1:1 and small group mentoring to pupils needing additional support
Implement behaviour and engagement strategies set by the SENCO or pastoral team
Track and report on pupil progress, attendance, and wellbeing indicators
Build trusting relationships that support resilience and emotional growth
Desired Experience
+ Qualifications
Previous experience working with children in a school or youth setting
Strong communication and interpersonal skills
Ability to remain calm under pressure and motivate learners
Commitment to inclusion and pupil development

But, I don’t want to register with a supply agency, why should I sign up with Milestone?
We get it. Supply agencies can’t always deliver exactly what you’re looking for, but that’s where we’re different…
We’re an education platform service who partner with schools and MATs to support their recruitment, training and wellbeing needs. It’s in our interest to secure you a role you’ll love, in a setting you’ll want to stay in, with a view to progressing your career. If that’s what you want!
Our HR and Safeguarding team consistently go the extra mile to complete your checks as quickly as possible - at no cost to you. To put so much hard work and valuable time into completing these checks and then NOT deliver the opportunities you are looking for…? Well, we’d go out of business pretty quickly!
How much does it cost and how much will I be paid?
Our services to you are completely free.
Costs will only incur if you require a new DBS or OSPC, but don't worry - we can still put you forward for interviews while the applications in process, so you won't miss out on all the exciting opportunities!
All roles are paid in line with Teachers Pay and Conditions, or are matched with each school’s salary guidelines for the role you undertake. We'll always negotiate the best possible pay rates that reflect your hard work, experience and qualifications.
