Our work spans education, justice and rehabilitation, children's social care, family support, social action and getting people into work.

Catch22 College is the collective name for 9 sites we have across the country delivering academic and vocational training programmes for young people aged 16+ who, for whatever reason, are not suited to a mainstream school setting. Our Bishop Auckland site, like all our other School sites, provides students with a highly supportive environment where they have access too opportunities to build up their confidence and self-belief, and to gain new skills and experiences that will help them to achieve their goals in life. We exist to help our students find their future.

**1. Supporting our tutor to deliver amazing teaching to our students**
- Use one day to support the Recruitment and Progression Officer to plan and deliver employability workshops, support guest speakers and provide enrichment activities.
- Provide support to learners on a one-to-one basis and in small groups, and all the while with empathy, respect and patience, appreciating that our students have faced, and continue to face many challenges in their lives, which can make them harder to engage with education.
- Contribute to regular student reviews, using this and any other opportunity to build up our students’ self-belief and confidence, and to celebrating their successes or learn from any mistakes they may have made along the way.
- Where necessary, supporting the tutor to address any poor behaviour in the classroom (or wider centre) in a way that is appropriate to the situation and to the learner, i.e. informed by your awareness of how best to engage that student, to de-escalate the situation, etc.
- Sometimes provide cover for the Tutor when they are absent, and occasionally leading small group work within lessons.
