This is a residential role and an apartment will be provided within the Boarding House.
The main responsibility of the Assistant Housemaster is to assist in the daily care and supervision of boarders, helping to supervise and monitor their daily well-being and academic progress, as well as encouraging a developing maturity in each boarder commensurate with their age. Staff are expected to get to know boarders individually and to care for them appropriately. This role requires a basic understanding of child/teenage development, a degree of patience, tolerance and understanding, as well as a commitment to discipline where necessary, in accordance with the rules and protocols of the school.
