**Have you ever considered teachingin a prison?**

If you would like a unique and challenging teaching role, where you can genuinely make a difference, enhance the prospects of your learners, and ultimately change people's lives for the better - then this could be the opportunity for you.

Like any educational setting, Prisons come with their challenges. In this environment, learners are locked up for large periods of the day, away from their families and for some, their children. Most are at rock bottom, having to live with the regret ofwhat they have done - education gives them a focus. And hope.

Education provides prisoners with an opportunity to upskill, increasing their future employment prospects which directly reduces the likelihood of reoffending. Many prisoners will arrive without having basic Maths or English skills. Prison Education ensuresall learners are put through Functional Skills Maths & English, which then puts them on the pathway to vocational learning courses, such as Carpentry, Bricklaying, Painting & Decorating, Plastering & Tiling, Industrial Cleaning, Barbering, Catering and Horticulture.

Prisons have a dedicated education department, with classrooms and fully functioning workshops, where teaching and learning can take place. You will be fully supported by an experienced education department. Training and development opportunities are available.

The role will involve teaching both English & ESOL levels 1 & 2, to 10 learners in a fully equipped classroom. Lessons run for 2.5 hours, allowing formore contact time with the learners. You will have one cohort of learners, who will stay with you until completion of the course.

Work schedule: Between Monday to Friday - 18.5 hours per week

Salary scale**:£12,580 - £16,419.50**

Holidays: 140.75 hours per annum, inclusive of statutory bank holidays.
- A teaching qualification (_or a willingness to work towards one_)
