Teaching Staff

Resident Sports Graduate Assistant

We have a great opportunity for a Resident Sports Graduate Assistant to start in September 2024, for the academic year 2024 - 2025. The role is intended to suit recent graduates who have an interest in pursuing a career in education or sports coaching: it is an ideal opportunity to assess whether a career in these fields is right for you. It will provide an all-encompassing experience of school life, working and living in the school alongside the other sports graduates and Gap Year Placement students. The work experience will be hugely varied, with opportunities to coach sport, support classroom and a wide range of extra-curricular activities.

Gap Year Placement Students

We have a rolling programme of one-year student placements for international students and Old Caldicotians who are looking for development opportunities as part of their gap year before going to university.

  • Overseas applicants should apply via Letz Live for these roles, which run with the calendar year from January.
  • Old Caldicotians should email [email protected] in the first instance with a covering letter explaining why you would like to return to Caldicott as a Gap student and what you would bring to the role. You should also complete and return our standard application form. Applications should be submitted, where possible, as a PDF or Word document file. Please name your documents with your surname as the first word, e.g. ‘Smith, J Gap Application 2023’
