The above secondary school in the Wythenshawe area of South Manchester is looking for a graduate mentor to start with them following the Easter break from Monday 19^th April. This is an excellent opportunity for a recent graduate to gain experience within a secondary school environment on a full time basis supporting students in the lower ability sets of Maths and English. The students that require further support have been identified as being behind their peers with regards progress and attainment levels and as a result, funding has been allocated for a graduate mentor to work alongside these students for the remainder of the academic year.

Supporting from April until July at least, the successful graduate mentor will support the lower ability students and then move on to supporting KS3 students in the final few weeks of the academic year. Any graduates who have experience of working with young people aged 11 - 16 in a previous setting are encouraged to apply for immediate consideration. This experience could be from a prior role supporting at a secondary school or teaching/tutoring at a tutor club or any other relevant setting.
