Graduate Sports Coach

College is offering a fantastic opportunity for a number of Sports Graduates to join us for one or two-year posts.

If you are accepted into the programme, from day one, you will have a full and varied role in the academic and pastoral functions of the school, gaining insight and experience into all facets of this vibrant establishment. Your days will be spent assisting in PE and swimming lessons in the morning and coaching in the afternoon. You will also be involved in after school clubs, the Sport Scholars’ strength and conditioning programme and the provision we offer our boarding pupils.

You will gain experience in the running of the boarding house and there is the opportunity to take part in leave-weekend activities. After the first year, if you would like to pursue a career in teaching, we may be able to support you in a PGCE course, enabling you to continue working with us while training towards Qualified Teacher Status.

The College is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. A copy of the College’s Child Protection Policy is available on the website.
