Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom Dame Allan's Schools Full time

Dame Allan’s Schools wish to appoint two enthusiastic Graduate Sports Assistants to assist in all areas of the PE and Sports Department, from assisting with lessons, to supporting staff in coaching sessions and fixtures.

Working under the overall direction of the Director of Sport, the Graduate Sports Assistants will be responsible to and work closely with the Heads of Sport for our major games of rugby, hockey, netball, cricket and football.

**Dame Allan’s Schools Sports**

Dame Allan’s has an excellent reputation for its sporting achievements at county, regional and national level. Independent Schools Sport magazine regularly place Dame Allan’s in the top 20 independent schools in the country for sport - 20th in 2016, 12th in 2014 and 16th in 2013. The schools take great pride in offering a broad range of sporting opportunities for all pupils, irrespective of their abilities.

Dame Allan’s is blessed with numerous onsite sporting facilities, as well as a group of knowledgeable and enthusiastic teachers and specialist coaches. A comprehensive and competitive fixture list runs across all major sports and all year groups all year round. Additionally, the Senior School runs a number of domestic, European and long haul international sports tours, including South Africa and Barbados.

Dame Allan’s Schools sport provision has developed and grown significantly in recent years. The hard-working and enthusiastic staff teach PE to individual classes and weekly games sessions to whole year groups. The Schools also have an extensive range of co-curricular clubs covering a range of different sports. The main school sports are rugby, hockey, football, netball and cricket, although there are opportunities to try other sports. Pupils also have opportunities to take part in sports fixtures with other schools in the Newcastle area, as well as other independent schools in the North of England. Pupil engagement is high, and the schools are quite rightly proud of its fast-growing reputation.

The person appointed should be self-motivated, eager to learn and able to use their initiative and have playing and/or coaching experience. A positive and flexible approach and passion for sport are qualities we value highly. It is important that the person appointed understands and is in sympathy with the ethos of the schools.

This role is based within the Senior School based at Fenham, Newcastle upon Tyne.
