Roles and Responsibilities

5. Tutor Support

5.1. Tutor Support Visits

Tutors who are teaching at a Centre for the first time, or are teaching a new course, should expect to receive a support visit during the first few weeks.  Wherever possible, support visits will be made by your Centre Manager.  

Please ensure that you have your Course File available at the start of a visit. 

Do take the opportunity to think about whether there are issues you wish to raise with the member of staff who visits e.g.

  • Are venue arrangements working smoothly?
  • Are you having difficulties in supporting particular learners?
  • Are you clear about Health and Safety arrangements on the site you are using?
  • Are you sure about the administrative side of running the course?
  • Have you all the documentation you need?
  • Are you aware of awarding body requirements if you are teaching an accredited course?
