Sports Graduate – Teaching Assistant – Sixth Form College – Central West London – Immediate Start

Are you a Sports Graduate who is passionate about helping young people progress academically and personally as they work towards their future ambitions? This fantastic opportunity at a Sixth Form College in Central West London allows you to make a real impact by supporting students on Level 1, 2 and 3 BTEC programmes, while also contributing to Biology lessons where your subject knowledge will be valued.

Why This Teaching Assistant Opportunity Stands Out

• A 4-day per week, term-time only contract that provides an excellent work–life balance.
• Competitive weekly pay between £450, including holiday entitlement.
• Join a welcoming Sixth Form College community with motivated learners preparing for university, apprenticeships, or work.
• Gain essential classroom and pastoral experience—ideal for graduates considering careers in teaching, coaching, or mentoring.
• Play a crucial role in helping students achieve academically while developing key skills for their next steps.

Your Key Responsibilities

• Support Sixth Form students across BTEC Level 1, 2 and 3 courses, particularly within Sports pathways.
• Provide additional Biology support, contributing to lessons and helping students strengthen their understanding of core concepts.
• Work closely with teaching staff to keep students engaged, focused, and progressing with coursework and assignments.
• Deliver structured academic and pastoral guidance, motivating students and helping them build strong independent study habits.
• Act as a positive role model, promoting confidence, resilience, and ambition among learners.

What We're Looking For

• A Sports Graduate (or similar discipline) with excellent communication skills and a passion for supporting young adults.
• Some understanding of Biology and the confidence to assist with teaching and learning in this subject.
• Previous experience in a school, college or youth-work setting is highly desirable.
• A proactive team player who can also take initiative and provide personalised support where needed.
• A genuine interest in education and aspirations toward teaching, coaching or related career paths.
