Our Roman Catholic, Salesian school, in the heart of Battersea, strives to ensure that all its young people are given the opportunity and support they need to achieve their best, fulfil their true potential and go out into the world confident and ready to ‘earn their own bread.’

We would welcome applications from people who have good spoken and written English as you may be required to read questions for students or scribe on their behalf.
