Best Practice: Participate in the Professional Development Review system and share innovative digital resources with colleagues.
Collaboration: Attend staff meetings, chapel services, and professional development days to contribute to the wider school culture.

Pastoral & Additional Duties

House Tutoring: Act as a tutor to a group of pupils in a boarding house, supporting their academic progress and overall well-being.
Invigilation & Cover: Cover for absences when required and invigilate internal and external exams in accordance with board regulations.
Extra-Curricular: Contribute to the wider life of the school, supporting activities such as UKMT challenges, Olympiad training, or other sporting and cultural pursuits.
