Teacher of Pathways

Temporary | Contract

About the Role

You'll join a housing provider delivering education to learners working towards the qualifications and skills they need to move forward. Teaching on their Pathways provision, you'll plan and lead inclusive sessions that meet learners where they are, whatever their prior experience of education.

Alongside delivery, you'll assess progress, keep learner records up to date and work with colleagues across the organisation to make sure every learner is supported.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Planning and delivering engaging sessions to learners at a range of levels.
  • Assessing learners' starting points and tracking their progress.
  • Preparing learners for formal assessment and supporting them through it.
  • Maintaining accurate course administration, including registers and assessment records.
  • Working with colleagues to provide the academic and pastoral support learners need to achieve.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • A recognised teaching qualification such as QTS, QTLS, PGCE, Cert Ed or DET
  • Experience of teaching or training learners with a range of starting points
  • Strong classroom and behaviour management skills
  • An enhanced DBS

Desirable (but not essential):

  • Experience of working in alternative or specialist provision

Please note this role does not offer eligibility for visa sponsorship.

If you're ready to help learners take their next step, we'd love to hear from you.
