We are looking for committed and enthusiastic Personal Tutors to join a talented and collaborative student support services team in our successful and inclusive sixth form college. This is an exciting opportunity to make a real difference to our students’ experience at Bilborough and their life chances by ensuring they are well supported and guided to achieve their full potential throughout their journey at college.

Through the delivery of high quality tutor group sessions and 1:1s with students, you will be responsible for monitoring the students in your tutor groups and ensuring high levels of attendance, achievement and promoting a growth mind-set that enables them to progress successfully to the next stage of their working lives.

Ensuring the welfare and wellbeing of your tutees is important and, in achieving this, you will work closely with the College’s Welfare Officer, Wellbeing Coach, Counsellors and Safeguarding Team.

If you have a positive, proactive approach, enjoy working with and challenging young people to achieve their full potential and are able to work collaboratively as part of a busy team we would love to hear from you. In addition, you will need to have a teaching qualification, experience of working with 16-19 year olds in a supportive capacity and have the capacity to manage a high case-load.

We are a Sixth Form College with a diverse student community. We particularly welcome applications from black and minority ethnic candidates as they are under-represented within our teaching staff.

The College is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all students in our care and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All staff appointments are subject to pre-employment screening including DBS clearance. We are an equal opportunities employer.
