2 weeks ago

Kent, United Kingdom Kent College, Pembury Full time

**Assistant Housemistress**

**James and Osborn**

**September 2023 or January 2024**

Kent College Pembury excels in adding value to its pupils both academically and pastorally. We are seeking an Assistant Housemistress for our senior boarding house with full, weekly and flexi boarding places for girls in years 10-U6. Some experience within a school boarding environment is preferred as is a genuine interest in the welfare and development of students. There will be some opportunity to be involved in wider school activities but this is not expected to be a teaching position.

Comfortable, self-contained one-bedroom accommodation within the boarding house is provided.

Boarding at Kent College is a central part of the school’s life and ethos. We are very fortunate to have such a close-knit boarding community at the heart of our school and believe that the family atmosphere present in the boarding houses has an extremely positive effect on all of the girls and staff there.

There are two boarding houses at Kent College organised to meet the needs of different age groups. Each house provides modern facilities with spacious bedrooms, cosy common rooms with TVs, and bathrooms with private shower units.

The senior boarding house ‘James and Osborn’ is home to all boarders in Year 10 and above, run by a Housemistress, Assistant Housemistresses, and Boarding Assistant.

The junior boarding house ‘Hawkwell and Hargreaves’ is home to all boarders in Year 9 and below, run by a Housemistress, Assistant Housemistress and Resident Graduate.

The purpose-built facilities in James and Osborn house accommodate a mix of ages from 14 to 18 years. The hub of activity is often in the kitchens or common room, which welcome impromptu gatherings whilst drinks and snacks are prepared or a game of pool played. In addition, the house has two TV rooms, laundering facilities and a computer room.
