Do you want to share your strengths with a young person who needs support with getting ready for living in the adult world? The transition from childhood to adulthood is not an easy one. For some young people there are extra challenges which can make it hard to see how earning a wage and paying bills would ever be a possibility.

New Meaning Training delivers learning programmes that are designed to empower and support young people in everyday fundamentals for living life more independently. Tutors and Learning Support Assistants (LSAs) support learners as they acquire skills for employment, training, life skills and personal development as well as English and Maths Functional Skills.

If you are a caring person who is interested in motivating, inspiring and building a rapport with young people, to help them with their life, work-skills and employability, then a LSA role at New Meaning Training (NMT) will be a job where you can get paid whilst making a difference! NMT is currently looking for LSAs with empathy, patience, and compassion to work with learners aged between 16-25.

Successful applicants will be supporting students with their learning and or social and emotional needs that match your skill set and personality. Our learner’s profiles vary greatly so we welcome a variety of applicants. Ultimately, we’re looking for well-rounded people with an understanding that if the right support and adjustments are made, barriers can be removed to enable learning and access to life. You may already have experience of supporting young people, but equally it may be that you have strengths and experience in a particular sector of work that would really add value for the learner’s work skills.

A large proportion of our learners have Education Health Care Plans (EHCPs) - a document which sets out the education, healthcare, and social care needs of learners for whom extra support is needed. All learners at NMT have varying levels and areas of need such as: autism, ADHD, anxiety, attachment disorder, dyslexia, experience of trauma, social emotional needs, and learning difficulties amongst others. Come and work with one of our teams who dedicate themselves to supporting young people in energising, inclusive and caring work environments.
