Educational Psychologist

Grade Level:
All classes  

Positions to be filled :
01

Openings :
– Malagasy residents
– Foreigners already staying in Madagascar

Starting date :
Position begins with the 2023 – 2024 School Year (September 2023)  

Support Days :
Open, depending on availability

Responsibilities :
Our educational psychologist (also known as EP) works in partnership with families, teachers and other professionals to help children and young people achieve their full potential. The EP applies psychology to promote positive outcomes in relation to mental health, wellbeing, and communication for all children and young people, and to improve their experiences of learning. 

The EP responsibilities can include supporting children with learning difficulties or communication needs, and helping schools to meet the needs of young people who are finding it difficult to manage their emotions.

Educational psychologists work at various different levels: 

  • on an individual level – assessing a child’s needs and working with schools to implement provision that meets the identified needs
  • at a group level – supporting a set of children with similar needs
  • supporting the systems around the child – for example, supporting a school to develop their inclusion policy.

The EP uses a variety of techniques when working directly with children and young people to assess their needs. These include observations, assessments of learning and different methods to elicit the voice of the child or young person. Consultation and collaboration with parents, teachers, social workers, doctors and other people involved in the child’s education are also important ways in which you can gather information. From there, the EP will support schools and parents to develop a range of appropriate interventions and strategies. These can include learning programmes, strategies to support emotional regulation and collaborative work with teachers or parents. The EP may also provide in-service training for teachers, teaching assistants and other professionals on issues such as staff wellbeing or a relational understanding of behavior. A further aspect to the job is research and advising on educational provisions and policies.

Certification and Qualifications :
At least a bachelor level in relevant subject; minimum of 3 years relevant experience working with children and young people in an education, health, social care, early years or youth justice setting;  demonstration of leadership; very strong skills in interpersonal communication and collaboration; good command of spoken English, French and Malagasy; a commitment to student growth and development.   

Application deadline :
3rd July 2023
Vacancy may extend until position is filled.
