We will support them by:
Encouraging each Tutorial Fellow to work
with a designated postgraduate or post- doctoral teaching assistant. He or she will undertake academic and related tasks chosen by the tutors and agreed in advance with the assistant and the Academic Of ce.The focus will be on enhancing the assistant’s teaching skill-set through mentoring and training, as well as allowing the tutor to concentrate on his or her primary responsibilities for teaching and research;
Providing additional clerical and administrative support toTutorial Fellows;
Seeking to fund Career Development Fellows to support each subject and to facilitate the development of early-career academics; and Providing extra support or partial buy-outs to tutors returning to the College from parental leave or carer responsibilities to allow them to re-engage with their research alongside their teaching duties. Achieving the right balance for all Fellows is a priority.
