Behaviour Teaching Assistant

🌟 Ready to be someone’s favourite person at school?

At University Collegiate School, we don’t just educate minds, we shape futures, build confidence, and celebrate every small win (yes, even remembering a pen). We’re on the lookout for a Behaviour Teaching Assistant who’s equal parts calm, compassionate, creative… and maybe just a little bit superhero.

The Mission (Should You Choose to Accept It)

As a Behaviour Teaching Assistant, you’ll be the guiding star for students who need a little extra support navigating school life. You’ll:

• 🧠 Help students develop emotional regulation and resilience skills

• 🎓 Support learning by keeping students engaged, focused, and ready to succeed

• 🚀 Turn challenges into “watch me grow” moments

• 🤝 Work alongside teachers, parents, and support teams to champion every student

Think of yourself as part coach, part cheerleader, part strategist… with a great sense of humour 😄

• 💡 Have experience supporting young people (school, youth work, mentoring — all welcome!)

• 💙 Lead with empathy but can set firm, fair boundaries

• 🎭 Can switch from serious supporter to playful motivator in seconds

• 🧘 Stay calm when things get a little… lively

• 📣 Believe every student has potential — even on those days

Bonus points if:

• You’ve got a great story, joke, or motivational phrase on standby

• You celebrate progress like it’s a national holiday 🥳
