What skills and experience we're looking for

This is an exciting opportunity to join our study support team, working closely with students to help them overcome barriers to learning, and supporting young people with special educational needs, disabilities and additional needs to make outstanding academic progress and to flourish as individuals. Sensitivity, flexibility, empathy and good personal communication are important skills for this role, helping to build positive and constructive relationships with young adults.

The successful candidate will have the knowledge, understanding and experience of working with young people in a similar environment and must be willing to undertake further training relevant to the post.

What the school offers its staff

New College Doncaster, an academic sixth form college, offers a distinctive young adult ethos and is a great place to work and study. With 1500 students, New College Doncaster has grown rapidly since opening in 2017 and students make exceptional progress in both A level and level 3 applied general courses. The college is proud to have been rated ‘outstanding’ in all categories in its 2021 Ofsted inspection: “Students at New College Doncaster experience a culture of very high expectations, which supports them to maximise their potential and achieve their aspirations. Teachers challenge students to be the best that they can be, to have very high levels of attendance and punctuality, and to develop strong, independent learning skills.” The three Colleges within the Trust work closely together, presenting exciting opportunities for collaboration, support, development and progression.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious candidate to join our dynamic team at the forefront of change and to make a real difference to raising standards of education in the local community. New College Doncaster delivers primarily A Level provision, alongside a number of Level 3 applied general qualifications and a very small amount of Level 2 provision.

The Trust currently comprises of three 16-19 Colleges, three Secondary Schools and three Primary Schools.
