Academic Tutor
We are now looking to appoint a team of tutors to deliver small group sessions to eligible pupils. This role is open to qualified teachers and support staff – full training will be provided for non-teaching staff.
The key features of the NTP programme are:
• The tutoring must be focused on Pupil Premium pupils as these are the children who have fallen most behind during the pandemic and lockdowns;
• The tutoring should be in group sizes of no more than 1-to-3. It can be 1-to1;
• A block of tutoring is expected to last for 15 hours, but the timings can be flexible, and it doesn’t need to be in hour long blocks;
• It can take place at a flexible time, e.g. in Resilience, tutor time, Extra-Curricular or during the School day;
• In Primary school, the tutoring should focus on English and Maths;
• In Seniors, it can focus on the wider Ebacc subjects;
• We are expected to provide tutoring for up to 60% of our Pupil Premium pupils, which will be around 240 pupils during the course of this academic year.

Mayfield is a very successful and heavily oversubscribed school in the north of Portsmouth City. We are one of the first state, single-site, ‘all through’ schools in the country. We operate an “Outstanding” Pre-School and Nursery with reduced fees and preferential access for Mayfield staff. We have been successful in our bid to receive ‘Priority School Building’ funding which will result in the construction of a multi-million, ‘state of the art’ new build on the current school site which opened September 2021. In September 2016, OfSTED conducted a section 5 inspection and found all areas to be ‘good’ and in summer 2018 the school secured its best ever results across all key stages. All staff members have the opportunity to work across all sections of the school depending on their interest, skills and experience. During this period of growth, we have a number of vacancies in all sections and truly believe “our only limitation is our ambition”.
Before you apply for a post at Mayfield please ensure you have read and embrace our ways of working and ethos by reading our Staff Handbook.
Mayfield is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All successful candidates will be subject to criminal records bureau checks along with other relevant pre-employment checks.
