Visiting school staffVisiting School Staff will provide a pastoral and educational support for students through team teaching with City Cite staff where appropriate. They will enthuse students to take responsibility within their group and will be active in the observation of group dynamics.
Visiting School Staff will liaise with City Cite staff regarding individual needs of students to allow positive outcomes for all students while completing Rich Tasks. They will be actively and enthusiastically involved in activities where appropriate. They will employ ‘guide on the side’ rather than ‘sage on the stage’ teaching styles in relation to the students’ team work. There is the opportunity to reflect on some different teaching techniques, styles and the use of alternative environments that have a context relevant to their students’ learning. |
