Learning Mentor

An opportunity has arisen to be part of the Medical Needs Teaching Service, in these Learning Mentor posts, which aim to break down the barriers to learning for children and young people.

The Medical Needs Teaching Service (MNTS) is a service commissioned by Leeds Local Authority through a Service Level Agreement with the East Specialist Inclusive Learning Centre.

All candidates that are successfully selected for an interview will be required to complete a self-disclosure form. Appointments will be to the Medical Needs Teaching Service which is part of the East SILC and will be subject to an enhanced DBS check and reference check.

Due to the unique nature of the MNTS, a phone conversation is available for interested applicants. Please contact Jane Stimson/Melanie Bond (HR Administrators) on 0113 336 8060. Please note the Service will be closed for the Easter Holidays.
