You may be allocated to one class, or be shared across the year groups in the Prep School to support individual and groups of pupils and classes, depending on needs. You will work under the direction of various Form/Subject Teachers who have ultimate responsibility for the class, but a degree of initiative and self-motivation is expected. You will also play a key part in supervision before, during and after the school day and may be asked to cover lessons if Class Teachers are absent.
