Sport Lecturer

Temporary

Are you an experienced sport professional looking to inspire the next generation?

About the Role

As a Sport Lecturer, you'll plan and deliver engaging sport sessions for a training provider, helping learners build the practical skills, subject knowledge and confidence they need to progress. You'll adapt your teaching to suit a range of abilities and learning styles, delivering both theory and practical sessions.

Alongside delivery, you'll assess work, give constructive feedback and track progress towards qualifications.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Planning and delivering engaging, differentiated sport lessons.
  • Preparing schemes of work, lesson resources and assessment activities.
  • Delivering both theory and practical sessions safely and effectively.
  • Assessing, reviewing and tracking learner progress and achievement.
  • Preparing learners for assessment in line with awarding body requirements.
  • Maintaining accurate course and learner records.
  • Supporting learners to progress into further education, employment or training.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • A relevant sport qualification or industry background
  • Strong subject knowledge across theory and practical delivery
  • Ability to engage and motivate learners of differing abilities

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A teaching or assessing qualification
  • Previous experience of teaching in a further education or training setting

If you're ready to bring your sport experience into the classroom and help learners achieve their potential, we'd love to hear from you.
