Job overview
YEAR LEADER
TLR 1C (Fringe)
We are looking for a dynamic leader who can inspire, stimulate and interest our students so that they can achieve their personal best in all aspects of school life with the support of a team of tutors. We would welcome applications from all subjects, but an ability to teach PE would be an advantage.
Each Year Leader is responsible for a tutors and approximately 270 students. They must ensure that tutors know their tutees well, offer them praise and support, monitor their academic progress and liaise with subject teachers and parents to improve performance. Ensuring students within the Year Group behave appropriately, wear the correct uniform, complete homework and attend College regularly are also important aspects of the Year team.
Year Leaders are in regular communication with parents and external agencies. They are often the focal point for dealing with difficult issues. It is vital that Year Leaders have a clear alignment with The College’s core values, ethos and policies so that all students can be dealt with fairly, appropriately and consistently. It is expected that Year Leaders will have a visible presence around The College, and will be someone who students see as a role model.
