Job overview
The Mill Hill School Foundation are seeking enthusiastic Residential Graduate Assistants to join Mill Hill School in September 2018.
The selected candidates will gain valuable and varied experience in a role which is a stepping stone into the teaching profession.
As part of a newly created team you will be based in one of our four boarding houses and support the smooth running of the boarding and co-curricular aspects of the school during evenings and weekends. Depending upon knowledge base, during the day time, you will lead co-curricular activities, assist with sports teams and have the opportunity to support the PE department.
We have designed the role to give successful applicants an all-encompassing experience of independent school life. The role is likely to suit recent graduates who are interested in pursuing a career in education, understanding that the role is fast-paced and time-consuming during School terms yet enormously rewarding for the right people. Working in areas of the School that befit each individual’s experience, abilities and aspirations, the Graduate Assistants will be closely supervised by a senior member of staff within a formal structure of professional development, training and feedback that will enable them to prepare for their future careers in education.
In addition, the Graduate Assistants will attend regular in-service training alongside the teaching staff, covering all aspects of our work from the latest teaching and learning developments to important changes in legislation.
For an exceptional candidate, there may in due course be the opportunity to move into formal teacher training, supported by the School, if this aligns with a particular staffing requirement that the School has at the time.
Please see the attached Candidate Information Pack for more information.
