Publicerad 2024-04-16

Advert

Hours: 22.2 hours per week, 52 weeks per annum

Salary: Spine Points 32 (£31,794 Full-Time Equivalent) to 37 (£36,859 Full-Time Equivalent), rising to a ceiling of Spine Point 40 (£40,287 Full-Time Equivalent) with a full teaching qualification.

Location: This role is based across our Tonbridge and Hadlow Campuses.

Do you love teaching English? Are you looking for a change of setting? Have you considered moving within, or to, the Further Education sector? We have an English teacher vacancy at our Tonbridge and Hadlow campus for 3 days a week. Results for our English GCSE resit learners are significantly above the National Average for similar learners. You would be working within an excellent, tight knit team who regularly plan and collaborate together to provide stimulating lessons which engage the learners. Due to college learner numbers increasing we are looking to expand our team.

The Tonbridge and Hadlow campuses have dedicated English teaching rooms and a shared English/Maths office. The learners study English within their main vocational Study Programme, and, as such, have a great balance between the practical, vocational elements and the academic elements.

If you wish to visit the campus or to discuss the role further, please do contact Human Resources who can arrange this.

We have had several teachers move from the Secondary to FE phase and for any prospective candidates considering this, we have listed some implications of this transition which you may like to use as a consideration.

Implications of moving from secondary to FE

  • No tutor groups
  • No duties
  • No parent evenings
  • The vast majority of classes are no more than 20 learners
  • Repeat delivery of lessons with only minor changes based on learner needs and backgrounds, so planning is manageable
  • Functional Skills learners have up to 3 opportunities to take the exam (FS is a subset of the main English GCSE programme)
  • Greater opportunity for CPD sessions during non-teaching weeks
  • Continuing/no change to expectations

  • Plan and deliver high quality lessons
  • Use of a classroom base and office
  • Continuation of the Teacher Pension scheme
  • Learners complete regular assessments to track progress
  • A written report for each learner once a year
  • Differences

  • We have a strong focus on attendance as well as achievement
  • Each learner receives a 2-hour English session for approximately 32 weeks
  • Slightly longer days (start at 8:45am, finish at 5:15pm) but over a shorter delivery time (i.e., teaching starts approx. 2nd week in Sept and ends in June)
  • The majority of the delivery is to learners aged 16+ (the vast majority are 16-18).
  • In return, we’ll give you 42 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays (pro rata for part time contracts), and you’ll be enrolled onto the Teachers’ Pension Scheme which also includes life assurance. You’ll also benefit from free parking and have access to a range of onsite facilities including a nursery (Dartford and Gravesend campuses), restaurants and coffee shops.
  • Earlier return than schools – usually 3rd week in August.
  • This role is a permanent, part time position over 52 weeks per annum, in return we’ll give you 42 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays (pro rata), and you’ll be enrolled onto the Teachers’ Pension Scheme which also includes life assurance
