About this role
Christ the King Voluntary Academy is looking to appoint an enthusiastic and dedicated English Mentor to join our supportive and ambitious team.
This is more than a classroom support role. As an English Mentor, you will work closely with students across Key Stages 3 and 4, providing targeted support that helps them develop confidence, improve attainment and achieve their full potential. Whether you're working one-to-one with a student who needs extra encouragement, leading small group interventions, or supporting learning in the classroom, you will play a vital role in helping young people thrive.
This position would suit someone with experience of working with young people aged 11-18, an aspiring teacher seeking valuable school-based experience, or an individual who is passionate about education and making a genuine difference every day.
At Christ the King, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to succeed. If you share this belief and want to be part of a school where relationships matter, achievement is celebrated and staff are genuinely valued, we'd love to hear from you.
