We are looking for a Graduate Teaching Assistant (GTA) to join us for an academic year, from September 2026 to July 2027. This would be an ideal opportunity for anyone with an interest in a future career in teaching, looking to gain ground level experience within a school. The role of the Graduate Teaching Assistant (GTA) at Princethorpe College is very varied and we try to accommodate the particular skills of each person. For example, there are opportunities to support our Games department with involvement in teaching and coaching several sports or supporting teachers of other subjects may also be offered, i.e., Technology, or, where appropriate, Languages. Key skills of each person will be used wherever possible in their related subject. In addition, regular tasks like bus duty, playground supervision, supporting the administrative staff, the supervision of pupils in after school study, and admin-based tasks such as Duke of Edinburgh’s Award or House administration are shared out fairly between all the GTAs. Flexibility is an important part of the job. Liaising with your line manager over unexpected and significant jobs is a central part of the role. Occasionally there are weekend or evening events which the GTA’s are expected to support, for example, Entrance Exam Day, Open Days and Progress Evenings. This is an excellent opportunity to join our growing Foundation that values its staff and offers a rewarding benefits package including a pension scheme and an Employee Assistance Programme that includes various benefits such as a cycle to work scheme.
