    We are looking to appoint appropriately skilled individuals to the post of School Counsellor in Edinburgh Schools. This is part of our exciting citywide initiative to provide counselling through all our schools. The post holder will be based within Westerhailes Community High School, Tynecastle, Drummond or St Thomas of Aquin's High schools and will also have a role offering counselling to pupils aged 10 years or over in the associated primary schools

    The successful candidate will work with the secondary school and it's associated primary schools to oversee the effective delivery of counselling services to 10 to 18 year olds within the school learning community.

    The counsellor will be line managed by the school but will also regularly link with the counselling co-ordinator to ensure appropriate levels of supervision are undertaken and to work within the citywide strategy for counsellors in schools.

    School Counsellors are part of the wider pupil support team and will support the child planning process within the national GIRFEC framework.

    They are integrated into the whole school approach to emotional health and wellbeing and work in partnership with the wider school team and other key partners.

    School Counsellors work with their schools and the counselling co-ordinator to agree and provide appropriate levels of counsellor contact during school holidays.

    This post is regulated work with children and/or protected adults under the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act 2007.

    Where an individual has spent a continuous period of 3 months or more out with the UK in the last 5 years, an Overseas Criminal Record Check will be required.

    To help achieve this, we're changing the way we interview and assess candidates by moving from a competency-based interview approach to a behavioural and technical (skills for the job) based approach.

    We're committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits that a diverse workforce with different values, beliefs, experience, and backgrounds brings to us as an organisation.

    Our salary range typically reflects the initial starting salary and annually increases until it reaches the top of the range.
