Part-time and term time only, Wednesdays 8:45am – 10:45am (some flexibility with times may be required).

We are looking for a suitably qualified Teacher to join our Academy education team at our Canalside Training Centre, working closely with Academy players and staff. The successful candidate will support Academy players studying at GCSE level by delivering structured educational sessions that enable them to keep up with schoolwork missed due to their weekly day-release training commitments. The tutor will ensure players remain on track academically by providing guided support, clarification of key educational concepts, and assistance in completing assigned tasks.

Candidates must be able to demonstrate e xperience of teaching or supporting students at GCSE level, ideally in a secondary school or sports Academy environment. The role will require the Tutor to plan and deliver structured support sessions to small groups, adapting to the needs of different students.

Candidates must be p assionate about making a difference through sport, have excellent communication and organisational skills, and be able to form positive relationships with schools and players and their parents/carers to maximise players’ potential.

A recognised teaching qualification and Qualified Teacher Status are essential for this role. If you have the specified qualifications and personal attributes and are enthusiastic about making a difference to the education of our Academy players, we would love to hear from you.

Safeguarding

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and we expect all staff and other stakeholders to share this commitment.

As this roleis likely to involve the supervision of and work with children and young people or vulnerable adults, the successful candidate will require clearance to work in football and an Enhanced Criminal Records Check (CRC) through the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).

Applicants must disclose all previous convictions including spent convictions in accordance with the associated legislation; this can be done via a private letter/disclosure to the Head of Human Resources and EDI. The amendments to the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975 (2013 and 2020) provide that when applying for certain jobs and activities, certain convictions and cautions are considered ‘protected’.

This means that they do not need to be disclosed to employers, and if they are disclosed, employers cannot consider them.

Guidance about whether a conviction or caution should be disclosed is available on the Ministry of Justice website.
