An Exciting Opportunity to Join a Dynamic Team!

This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the development of student support through raising aspirations and performance and helping to build ambition, confidence and resilience in young people.  Working as part of a team, you will be responsible and accountable for a cohort of students, working with them in a diverse range of ways including goal-setting, monitoring achievement and attendance and motivational coaching.  You will be expected to liaise with parents, Subject Teachers, Heads of School and Senior Progress Tutors to support, challenge and motivate students in all aspects of the learning journey.  You will also be responsible for the co-ordination of work experience and employability across the college, setting up and overseeing all aspects of student placements and liaising with providers, students and staff.

We are looking for a committed and motivated individual, with experience of providing assistance, support and guidance to young adults.  You should have excellent communication and language skills and have the flexibility to occasionally work evenings at College events.

New College Bradford is a 16-19 free school opening initially with 500 students, rising to 1200 by September 2021.  The college sits within the New Collaborative Learning Trust, a multi-academy trust established by New College Pontefract (an Ofsted outstanding provider).  We believe that students at New College Bradford should enjoy high-quality teaching and learning underpinned by a culture of high expectations, challenge and support, both for students and staff, which will enable young people in Bradford to secure high-quality qualifications to support them into employment, training and higher education.  Working in a new campus, you will join a focused and driven team at the cutting-edge of teaching and learning.  New College Bradford will primarily deliver A Levels, alongside a number of Level 3 Applied General qualifications. 

If you believe that you have the skills and abilities to take on this role, we’d love to hear from you.  

NCLT will raise standards across our family of schools and colleges.  We will promote a culture of aspiration, excellence and enjoyment.  We will use our collective strengths and expertise to benefit our children and young people.
