Job Description

Maths Lecturer

Temporary | Contract

Location: the West Midlands

About the Role

You'll join a further education provider to deliver high-quality maths teaching across GCSE and Functional Skills programmes, supporting learners to build the numeracy skills and confidence they need to achieve their qualifications.

You'll plan and assess learning, track progress and create a positive classroom environment for learners of mixed abilities, many of whom are working towards maths alongside a vocational programme.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Planning and delivering engaging GCSE and Functional Skills maths lessons.
  • Preparing schemes of work, lesson resources and assessments.
  • Tracking learner progress, marking work and providing timely, constructive feedback.
  • Supporting learners with gaps in knowledge to build confidence and motivation.
  • Working closely with curriculum colleagues to embed maths across vocational programmes.
  • Maintaining high standards of classroom management and a positive learning environment.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • Experience of teaching GCSE and Functional Skills maths in further education or secondary education
  • Strong understanding of the GCSE specification and effective resit strategies
  • Ability to differentiate and adapt teaching to varied learning needs
  • Excellent communication and organisational skills

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A recognised teaching qualification such as QTS, QTLS, PGCE, CertEd or Level 5 Diploma in Education and Training
  • Experience of supporting learners on vocational programmes

If you're ready to help learners succeed in maths, we'd love to hear from you.
