The College is seeking to appoint a well-qualified, high performing and enthusiastic individual to the permanent post of Learning Support Mentor, who will have experience, drive and enthusiasm to provide a high quality and challenging learning support experience for our students whilst also being relentlessly encouraging.
Learning Support Department
At Notre Dame Catholic Sixth Form College we are extremely proud of all our students’ achievements, especially the individual progression that they each make in their time with us.
Our aim is to offer a ‘World Class Catholic Education’ by providing the best care, support and outcome for each individual student. The Learning Support team provides a range of integrated, responsive, student centred support services for a range of learners. Learners include those who have an EHCP, a variety of learning needs including ASD, ADHD and SEMH needs, learning difficulty or disability as well as those who need additional support in English, Maths and other curriculum and subject areas. Students are offered taught sessions individually, in small groups, or on-course. The support we provide will enable our learners to more fully access the educational opportunities offered by the College, with local delivery where required, so as to meet the needs of all learners.
The department provides a highly professional approach whilst also being relaxed and friendly. The strong emphasis on encouraging an easy rapport between staff and students while maintaining a business-like approach to work, has seen the development of a very strong reputation for cross-college support with significant numbers of students engaging with the department at some point in their journey at Notre Dame.
Further information including the full job description and person spec can be found in the post description (detailed in the Applicant Information pack).
Closing date: 9am on Wednesday 25 September 2024.
