Social Science department

They should have an appreciation that the commitment to delivering outstanding educational outcomes goes beyond the classroom. Sociology is taught by passionate and committed professionals keen to enrich the lives of young people and inspire the next generation of students who either use the subject as part of their broader study programme or would like to take the study of this subject beyond college. Trips, workshop experiences and visiting professionals are commonplace. Sociology regularly organise trips such as the Women of the World Conference. They work very closely with other social science subjects such as Criminology and together they support one another through the sharing of good practice or use of resources.

We are looking for like minded individuals keen to play their part in enriching the lives of young people whilst contributing their own unique skills, knowledge and experiences to the team ethos. The large nature of student numbers in these subjects means that flexibility to teach beyond one specialism is highly sought after with opportunities of diversifying ones teaching regularly occurring across our social science subjects.
