English Graduate Academic Mentor in Ealing, London

English Graduate Academic Mentor
Finished your English degree and wondering what comes next?
Do you want a graduate role that makes genuine use of your academic ability rather than putting you behind a desk?
Perhaps teaching is already on your radar, but you want a year of high-quality school experience before deciding on teacher training?
KPI Education is recruiting an English Graduate Academic Mentor for a high-performing and ambitious secondary school in Ealing, West London.
This isn't a traditional Teaching Assistant position. The school wants to appoint a bright, academically accomplished English graduate who can use their subject knowledge to raise attainment, build confidence and inspire pupils to think more deeply about English.

- Full-time, Monday to Friday

Put Your Degree to Work
The school doesn't simply want another adult in the classroom. They want someone who can bring academic credibility, enthusiasm and intellectual curiosity to the English department.
You might spend part of your day helping a GCSE student unlock Shakespeare, another session developing a pupil's essay structure and analytical writing, before working with a small group on examination technique or stretching talented students towards the highest grades.
You'll become an academic role model – showing pupils where a passion for reading, writing and ideas can take them.
Why This School?
Located in Ealing with excellent transport connections across West and Central London, this is an aspirational secondary school where academic achievement matters.
The English department has created an environment where pupils are encouraged to debate, question, analyse and express their ideas confidently. You'll be surrounded by experienced teachers who are keen to support talented graduates interested in joining the profession.
Rather than spending a year watching from the sidelines, you'll be encouraged to develop your own skills, take responsibility and understand what excellent teaching looks like from inside the classroom.
Who Are We Looking For?
This opportunity is aimed at high-calibre graduates.
You'll ideally have a 2:1 or First-Class degree from a strong university, an impressive academic background and the communication skills to engage young people.
Previous school experience is useful, but potential matters more. If you're articulate, dependable, enthusiastic about your subject and seriously considering education as a career, the school wants to hear from you.
For future teachers, this could be the year that turns an interest in education into a career.
