The role is fully embedded within faculty teams and quality assurance processes, contributing to a coherent and consistent learner experience.

Teachers of Personal Development will play an important role in creating a safe, inclusive and supportive learning environment, working collaboratively with curriculum colleagues, tutors and support services to ensure learners are well supported and appropriately challenged throughout their journey.

We are looking for reflective, motivated and professional individuals who are passionate about supporting learner development and improving outcomes through high-quality teaching and learning. You will be committed to creating engaging, inclusive and supportive learning experiences that help learners achieve their full potential, both personally and academically.

You should be confident working with a diverse range of learners and able to build positive, respectful relationships that promote trust, motivation and engagement. A strong commitment to maintaining high standards, safeguarding and professional practice is essential.

• Understanding of effective teaching, learning and assessment practices and how to support learner progress and engagement.
