Summary

As a Locality Education Practitioner, youll be the face of Ewens Room in local schools, delivering and embedding our Wellbeing Education Pathway. Working across primary and secondary schools in your locality, youll partner with teachers to deliver engaging wellbeing modules that help young people build resilience and life-long skills.

1. Programme Delivery & Adaptation

Deliver the Wellbeing Pathway: Lead the classroom and small-group delivery of our core evidence-based programmes across the locality: Wellbeing Heroes (P3–P5), Wellbeing Explorers (P6–S1), and Wellbeing Champions (S4–S5).

Age-Appropriate Instruction: Adapt delivery styles seamlessly to engage diverse age groups, from introducing emotional vocabulary to primary children to facilitating mature conversations on stress, sleep, and neuroscience with secondary pupils.

Peer Support: Mentor and support secondary students trained as Wellbeing Champions to set up and maintain peer-led lunchtime drop-ins or school support structures.

Enrichment & Extracurriculars: Design and pilot high-quality afterschool wellbeing clubs or outdoor activities where local demand exists.

Collaborative Programme Development: Actively participate in shaping the future of our curriculum by working closely with management, therapists, and peers to design, test, and pilot new modules, including expanding our pathway into nursery, early primary (P1–P3), and/or college age groups to close existing support gaps.

2. School Engagement & Collaboration

Build Educational Partnerships: Act as the primary, trusted point of contact for Headteachers, Guidance staff, and Pupil Support Assistants (PSAs) within your locality cluster to align delivery with the Curriculum for Excellence.

Insight Sharing: Work collaboratively with school staff to identify emerging mental health trends, anxieties, or specific needs within classrooms, feeding these insights back to the management team to help shape future modules.

Safe Signposting: Work with the Ewen’s Room Management Team to ensure young people showing signs of mild-to-moderate distress are safely identified and referred to internal counsellors or external statutory paths.

Safeguarding & Professional Boundaries: Uphold strict professional boundaries between school staff, parents, and third sector. Act as a vigilant safeguarder by identifying potential risks early and ensuring all safeguarding concerns are managed in compliance with both school protocols and Ewen’s Room policies.

3. Evaluation & Operations

Impact Tracking: Collect timely feedback, baseline data, and evaluation metrics from pupils and teaching staff to track the impact of the programmes and meet grant-funding requirements.

Resource Management: Coordinate, prepare, and transport classroom resources, risk assessments, and session materials across your locality's schools.

Team Participation: Attend weekly online team meetings to share best practices, problem-solve geographic delivery challenges, and collaborate with the wider Ewen's Room team.
