The PGATs are considered integral members of the Sports Department and will be expected to be assisting with and leading sports coaching sessions from their first day. They will typically be coaching up to 11 games sessions per week, and be responsible for at least one competitive team each term, including weekend fixtures. There will also be the opportunity to gain experience of some classroom teaching of academic P.E, under the guidance of the main experienced teacher, as well as assisting in covering for absent colleagues across all College departments.Away from sport, they will be expected to be a co-tutor for a group of pupils in a boarding house. This involves overseeing registration, pastoral time, parent liaison and report writing, again under the guidance of a more experienced colleague. They will also take responsibility for one evening duty per week in the boarding house they are attached to, as well as being involved in delivering other aspects of the boarding programme, such as evening activities in the SSS.This varied and engaging set of responsibilities generates a wide range of experience which sets PGATs up extremely well for moving into full teaching roles in due course.Safeguarding responsibilities:
- This role will involve daily contact with pupils, and you will be engaging in regulated activity relevant to children.
- All staff and volunteers have a responsibility for promoting and safeguarding the welfare of children and young persons for whom you are responsible and with whom you come into contact.
