School Sports Coach
PRU Setting

Are you passionate about sports and making a difference in young people’s lives? We are currently seeking dynamic and adaptable School Sports Coaches to join a dedicated team in a Pupil Referral Unit (PRU) based in Cardiff, working with secondary-aged pupils who present with a range of challenging behaviours and additional needs.

This is a unique opportunity to combine physical education, vocational support, and academic encouragement to help pupils re-engage with their learning journey in a supportive and structured environment.

About the Role:
• Support the delivery of sport, physical activity and vocational programmes
• Build positive relationships with pupils who may have experienced trauma, SEMH needs, or disrupted education
• Work closely with teaching staff to reinforce learning, manage behaviour, and motivate pupils
• Help pupils achieve progress in line with their individual academic and personal targets
• Encourage participation, build confidence and model professional behaviour

We’re Looking For:
• Individuals with a strong background in sport, coaching or youth work
• Adaptable professionals who can think on their feet and respond confidently to a changing environment
• People who are committed, proactive, and confident in supporting students with complex needs
• Strong communicators who can set firm boundaries while remaining personable and approachable
• Experience working in alternative education, youth work or SEMH settings is highly desirable, but not essential

What’s on Offer:
• A variety of roles available – from general classroom support to more targeted sports/vocational coaching
• A supportive team and access to professional development
• The opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of young people
• A rewarding, varied and energetic school day

If you’re ready to take on a role that challenges, inspires and makes a real impact – we want to hear from you.
