Are you an experienced tutor, looking for a new challenge? Would you like to work for an organisation with a strong social purpose? Do you agree with our ethos that all adults, regardless of their situation, should have access to education? If so – then read on!

The WEA is the UK’s largest voluntary sector provider of adult education, a charity dedicated to bringing high quality, professional education into the heart of communities. We are looking to recruit staff to join our sessional pool to deliver our course offer. The number of working hours per day and/or term will depend on the requirements of the business. This is not a full-time, permanent role.

As a Sessional Tutor, you will provide engaging teaching, learning and assessment with a creative and supportive approach. You will adapt to a range of learning styles and differentiate delivery to learners with mixed abilities to develop their knowledge and understanding, while ensuring the highest possible quality of teaching and learning to a group of learners.

• Teaching qualification (PCGE, Cert Ed, DET or equivalent), level 5 specialism (IQA and Assessor qualifications would be advantageous)
• Experience of design and implementation of innovative learning, schemes of work and lesson plans
• Experience in a range of initial assessment and diagnostic tools
• A thorough understanding of RARPA, the EIF and the quality processes that underpin your delivery
• Experience of working with adults in hard‑to‑reach areas who may face multiple barriers to education
• Strong working knowledge of OFSTEDs Education Inspection Framework
• A strong team‑work ethic; collaboration and support are valued
• A passion for adult education and making a difference

We are working hard to create a workplace that reflects the communities we seek to serve and in which everyone feels empowered to be themselves and work together to drive positive change. We strongly encourage applicants from a diverse range of candidates and encourage everyone with the appropriate skills, experiences and potential to apply.
