Reports to: Additional Learning Support Manger

Start date: 24 August 2026

On behalf of Greenhead College, thank you for your interest in the post of Inclusive Learning
Mentor (Physical & Health Needs). We are pleased that you are considering Greenhead
College as the next stage in your career, and we hope, subject to matching our criteria, you
will apply.

Greenhead College is situated on a welcoming and attractive campus close to Huddersfield
town centre, adjacent to the picturesque Greenhead Park. We are just a short drive from the
M62 and within walking distance of both the train and bus stations, making the College highly
accessible for applicants from across the Northwest and Yorkshire.

Approximately 2900 students attend the College studying predominantly A Level courses
across 35 subjects. The academic structure of the College is based on Heads of Curriculum
who are subject specialists. The College also employs a team of Tutors, experienced in
pastoral care, careers guidance and trained in Mental Health First Aid. Alongside their
academic studies, students benefit from a rich extra-curricular enrichment offer and a wide
range of project and work placement opportunities through our Step Into Your Future scheme.

Our commitment to student and staff well-being is reflected in our achievements. In July 2024,
we received the Further Education Mental Health Gold Award in recognition of the
comprehensive support we provide. In March 2025, OFSTED once again graded the College
as ‘Outstanding’ in all six key areas, and as making a strong contribution to skills needs,
identifying no areas for improvement. Most recently in April 2025, we were honoured to be
named Further Education College of the Year at the Educate North Awards. These accolades
highlight the dedication and high standards demonstrated by our students and staff across all
roles.

The College is a great place to work, with a warm, inclusive atmosphere existing between
students and staff. Our staff are recognised for their hard work and are encouraged to inspire
each another, and to develop and grow. We are proud to have a strong and able College
Leadership Team, and a highly experienced Board, who work collaboratively to deliver the
College’s purpose and principles, and strategic priorities.

This is an exciting time to be joining us. We were one of only 50 schools and colleges nationally
to receive multi-million-pound funding for a new four-storey science building, which opened in
November 2023, with the final building work and landscaping completed in August 2025. We
continue to invest in our facilities and have an ambitious capital investment plan spanning the
next five years.

We look forward to receiving your application.
