Full Job Description

Job Purpose
Working as a member of the Tutorial team the successful candidate will be a Pastoral Tutor to groups of students, ensuring that they have excellent attendance and academic progress, supporting their social and personal development and performing a number of administrative duties.
Pastoral Tutors are responsible for both administrative and pastoral matters relating to the students in their group. They also exercise a degree of supervision over the academic progress of students. The effectiveness of the tutorial system depends to a great extent upon the quality of the relationship between student and tutor and between tutor and tutor group.
The Tutorial System
The College places considerable emphasis on the quality of its Tutorial Programme as a means of communication, and the support and wider personal and academic development of its students. Tutors meet once a week with their tutor group for registration, attendance monitoring and delivery of the activities related to the programme. In addition, they have a weekly time allocation to be used flexibly to meet with their tutees on a more individual basis. This time may also be used to meet with parents, teachers, or to complete administrative duties as appropriate.
The pastoral system is managed by three Heads of Year. Each Head of Year works closely with a small team of Pastoral Tutors to offer their team the help, support and guidance they require.

All appointments are subject to satisfactory pre-employment checks, including two satisfactory references and a satisfactory enhanced criminal records with Barred List check through the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).
