How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
5/5
100% better. It allowed me to have different ways to deal with students and have a much better understanding of them.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
Yes, sometimes I go along with the students football team but only when my students are part of the team, we also have on a weekly basis our enrichment trips that allows students to get out in the community.
Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Priory Group to a friend?
Yes
Why?
The job is amazing, you work with some great people and the days are different. It's also great to have a job in which I/you can make a difference in young people lives.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Priory Group?
Be yourself and dont try to act in different ways, in my role changing the way you are can be extremely stressful and the students we work with will easily pick up and change their look on you.
