Job Description

Early Years Lecturer

Temporary | Contract

Location: Yorkshire and the Humber

Start date: 16 October 2026

Are you an Early Years specialist who enjoys preparing learners for careers working with young children?

About the Role

You'll join a further education provider to plan, deliver and assess Early Years, supporting learners to achieve strong outcomes and progress into further study, apprenticeships or employment.

You'll teach learners at a range of levels, drawing on your own sector knowledge to connect classroom learning with practice in real settings.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Planning and delivering engaging Early Years lessons to learners across the programme.
  • Assessing learner work in line with awarding body requirements.
  • Developing learning resources tailored to the needs of your learners.
  • Monitoring learner progress and maintaining accurate records.
  • Contributing to internal quality procedures and programme reviews.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • Strong subject knowledge in Early Years
  • Confidence teaching learners at different levels
  • Excellent classroom management and communication skills

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A recognised teaching qualification
  • Experience of teaching in a further education setting

If you're ready to help the next generation of Early Years practitioners build their knowledge and confidence, we'd love to hear from you.
