Graduate Residential Assistant

Cardiff Sixth Form College Cambridge was launched in September 2022 with a small cohort of international students. The college will grow substantially in September 2023 and resulting in a number of additional boarding staff roles becoming available.

The Gradate Residential Assistant will join the existing boarding team to provide pastoral care of the highest standard that inspires our able and ambitious students to develop as young people outside of the classroom

Graduate Residential Assistants are responsible to the Head of Pastoral through the Senior Houseparent. They are expected to live in and sleep on site throughout the week when on duty except on their weekend or evenings off, and to take most of their meals with students and other staff. Graduate Residential Assistants occupy a special position in the House as pupils’/students’ confidantes and friends, but they are first and foremost members of staff and must always ensure that their behaviour reflects that prime responsibility. Appropriate staff training and induction will be given to cover Safeguarding, First Aid, Fire Training, Child Protection Training, Pupil/Student Welfare & Counselling.
