Learning Mentor
Godalming, Surrey
The Educational Support Department at Charterhouse exists to help pupils develop their learning skills so that they can fully access the School's curriculum and achieve outstanding examination performance.
The Department explicitly supports approximately 200 pupils who are on the School's Learning Support Register and is currently staffed by a Head of Educational Support (SENCo), an additional SEN teacher, a learning mentor and an administrator. It receives further support in the form of teachers of English, Mathematics and Science.
The Learning Mentor will work, under the guidance of the Head of Educational Support, with individual pupils and small groups to develop their learning skills and confidence. As an example, this might involve helping them to structure an English homework assignment or to explore their research skills as part of a project to be undertaken in class. The role is likely to be an ideal first step for someone who feels that their future career may lie in education, and the School is committed to helping the appointee develop a range of experiences that will help them in making the step to qualified teacher or another similar role.
Working hours for this role are 37.5 hours per week, Monday to Friday (days and times are flexible, including evenings), term time only, plus 5 working days (total) immediately prior to the beginning of terms in order to take part in School in-service training.
This is a two-year fixed term appointment. However, a review of the role and the needs of the School and its pupils may result in further contract extension or a permanent appointment.
Applications should be made in accordance with the School's application and safer recruitment procedures, via the School's website, selecting the relevant vacancy.

You will also have the opportunity to upload your latest CV.
Closing date for applications is 12 noon on Tuesday 13 June 2023.
Interviews will be held during the following week.
