Biology A level Teacher

2 months ago


South Kensington, United Kingdom Westminster Tutors Part time

We are looking for a part-time A level Biology teacher to join our team starting in September. The role may suit a current teacher or post-graduate student in a biological or ecological field. Candidates who can also teach another A level science are strongly encouraged to apply.

The role is flexible, and we are looking for someone to teach 6-15 hours on-site for two to three days per week.

Most teaching is one-to-one or in very small groups of two or three and is paid hourly.

What we can offer:

Westminster Tutors is an independent sixth-form college based in South Kensington. We have a longstanding reputation for academic excellence, and our teachers - despite the informal atmosphere in the college - inevitably command the respect of their students. Our students are mature and committed with exemplary behaviour, and staff morale is high.

The college's reputation has always been built upon our teachers, who remain our greatest asset today. Established in 1934, we remain close to our tutorial college origins and teach almost entirely at A level, with much of that teaching continuing to be one-to-one. This means the administrative burden (record keeping, marking, bureaucracy) is much lower, while job satisfaction is very high. 

Our teachers are instrumental in the academic progress their individual students make and have the satisfaction of knowing they really do make a difference. The success of our approach is also born out by our results (A level progress/ results/ university destinations), and we outstrip our competitors by a long measure.

We can offer our part-time teachers very flexible timetables according to their other commitments. A minimum commitment would be 6 hours a week, spread over two days, with most teachers working 12-24 hours weekly (i.e. 2-4 days a week).

The diversity and range of accomplishments amongst our teachers all contribute to the unique atmosphere at Westminster Tutors and provide a source of inspiration for our students.

What we are looking for:

The successful candidate will ideally be a qualified teacher, although this is not a requirement. We place far greater importance on candidates having strong academic credentials and require a good degree/ postgraduate degree in Biology, Ecology, or a closely related subject, as well as a proven ability to engage and inspire students aged 16+.

Our students have a very broad range of abilities, including some with SEND. Additional experience preparing students for PPE, TSA, and highly competitive UCAS applications would be advantageous.

Application Process:

If this sounds like the job for you, we would love to hear from you as soon as possible

Please fill in all the fields on the TES Quick Apply form and include a brief relevant statement supporting your application to Westminster Tutors.

We regret that we will only contact candidates who have been successfully shortlisted for interview.

Thank you for reading this advertisement and your interest in Westminster Tutors Independent Sixth Form College.

Safeguarding:

Westminster Tutors is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

Prior to an appointment being made, applicants will undergo enhanced child protection screening relevant to the post, including checks with past employers and the DBS. As part of this process, an online digital search will be undertaken, and candidates will be asked about any previous unprotected convictions or outstanding allegations.
