An opportunity has arisen to work at an

Ofsted Outstanding

sixth form college. Wyke Sixth Form College is recognised for its educational excellence, placed in the

top 5% for progress

at A level and ranked the second highest provider of students to Oxbridge in the Yorkshire and Humber region. The college's reputation attracts students from across Kingston-upon-Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire and North Lincolnshire. Wyke has grown significantly over the last decade, accommodating over

2500 exclusively level three students

on a modern 30M university-style campus. At Wyke, we put the student first and all decisions centre around staff working together to meet their best interests. 98% of our current teachers and support staff recommend working here. Come and join the amazing learning culture that creates "The Wyke Experience".

Working as part of the

friendly and experienced Additional Learning Support team

, we require a

highly motivated

Learning Support Mentor,

skilled at supporting young people

with their studies. The role involves working with students on an

individual or small group

basis.

The successful candidate will be able to support students to

maximise progress

on Level 3 programs of study, and also those taking GCSE qualifications in English and Maths. Ideally, candidates will have experience of supporting students for whom English is not their first language. Previous

experience working with young people

is essential, as is being

educated to Level 3

(A-level or equivalent).

We offer a forward-thinking,

welcoming college

with

supportive management

and a

modern environment

. Benefits include a strong programme of

staff development

and membership of the

Local Government Pension Scheme

. We are lucky to work with great students who are here to learn and

98% of staff said they would recommend the College as a good place to work

in the Summer 2025 Staff Pulse Survey. We are

committed to equality, diversity and inclusion

and we welcome applications from a diverse range of applicants. We would love our staff ethnicity and cultural profile to closely match the student population we serve.

The College takes

safeguarding

extremely seriously and a full range of pre-employment checks as set out in Keeping Children Safe in Education including a satisfactory enhanced DBS with barred list check and an online search will be required for this post. All posts at the College are exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act and it is an offence for those barred from working with children to even apply for a role at the College.
