Psychology Graduate Milton Keynes – Education and Training – Psychology Graduate Milton Keynes

Ideal role for an aspiring Clinical, Educational or Forensic Psychologist – May 1st start

In this LSA role, you will be working in a specialist Autistic school that has an outstanding approach full of restorative practices and positive engagement, pushing their students to have ambitious objectives. The school have a very diverse curriculum with GSCE, AQA and BTEC subjects, all focused on what is the very best for each student. The age of the classes ranges from EYFS through to 16 and GSCE focus.

There will be a plethora of socio economic, class, cultural and heritage reasons for why each student is in the school, they will have suffered different traumas and all different contexts. It is a case of forming relationships with each students, over an extended period. There are no quick fixes here, if you have a utopian idea of being able to 'saving and raising attainment immediately' with every student, you will be disappointed. You may help plant ideas that you will not see the full, positive effects or end results from, know that they are there and will happen.

Understanding the dichotomies, diversity and cultural effects on mental health in Milton Keynes, it is vital to being able to have the stoic and durability nature to thrive in this role. Previous experience of autism within your own family or through voluntary/paid work you have.

Many of the students will be incredibly charismatic and they will keep you on your toes every day. There will be some elements of Social, Emotional and Mental Health with challenging behaviour from some students, otherwise will be very introverted. Either way, it can often take a long time to form lasting impactful relationships; it is being prepared for that.
