About the Role
A further education provider in the North East is looking for an English Lecturer to deliver GCSE and Functional Skills English to post-16 learners from September 2026.
You'll teach learners across a range of vocational programmes, many of whom are resitting English, and you'll help them build the confidence and skills they need to achieve and progress.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Planning and delivering engaging GCSE and Functional Skills English sessions to learners of mixed abilities.
- Adapting lessons and resources to meet a range of learning needs.
- Tracking learner progress, marking work and providing timely feedback.
- Supporting learners with exam preparation, attendance and engagement.
- Working alongside curriculum colleagues and support staff to ensure inclusive practice.
What We're Looking For
Essential:
- Experience teaching GCSE and/or Functional Skills English
- A recognised teaching qualification, or a willingness to work towards one
- Strong classroom management and learner engagement skills
- Commitment to supporting learners from diverse backgrounds
Desirable (but not essential):
- A degree in English or a related subject
- Previous experience within further education
- Experience supporting resit learners
If you're ready to help post-16 learners achieve an essential qualification, we'd love to hear from you.
