  • Planning and delivering engaging computing theory and practical sessions.
  • Preparing schemes of work, lesson resources and assessment materials.

  • Maintaining a safe, structured and professional learning environment.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • A Level 3 qualification or equivalent in computing or a related discipline
  • Industry experience in computing or a digital technology field

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A recognised teaching qualification, or willingness to work towards one
  • Previous experience of teaching, assessing or mentoring learners
  • Experience of delivering across a range of qualification levels

If you're ready to turn your industry experience into a career teaching the next generation of digital professionals, we'd love to hear from you.
