- Promote safeguarding, Prevent, equality, diversity and inclusion, British Values and health and safety throughout delivery.
- Maintain high standards of apprentice behaviour, welfare and safe working practice within classrooms and workshops.
- Work collaboratively with Training Officers and other colleagues to provide a joined-up and supportive apprentice experience.
- Contribute to curriculum development, standardisation, quality assurance and continuous improvement activity.
- Share effective practice and provide support, coaching or guidance to Early Career Tutors and other colleagues where appropriate.
- Maintain current technical knowledge, occupational competence and teaching practice through continuing professional development.
