Tough care needed

by Sandwell Valley School

Sandwell Valley School caters for young people who, for varied reasons, fall outside of mainstream education. Some of those youngsters display challenging behaviour, which can affect the learning of the whole class. We are looking for volunteers who can be 'tough enough to care', and support us to deal with undesirable behaviour in school. Ideally this would be good experience for people considering a career in security, or who have recently retired from the services.
