You'll support and motivate a caseload of around 18 learners, integrating key topics such as safeguarding, British values, and EDI into your sessions. You'll manage communication with learners and their line managers, ensuring progress and implementing action plans as needed. While Functional Skills English and Maths are taught separately by specialists, you'll embed these skills into the apprenticeship delivery.
This role is to deliver the Residential Childcare Apprenticeships at Level 4 and Level 5. These apprenticeships include the Level 3 and Level 5 NCFE/CACHE Diplomas.
Level 4 - Children, young people and families practitioner / Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education

* Thorough knowledge of current children's home legislation in England
* A level 2 (or equivalent) qualification in both English and Maths
* You will need the willingness and ability to travel around the county to meet the demands of this role
* Excellent IT and organisational skills

* An introductory teaching/training award (PTLLS/L3 Award in Education & Training or equivalent)
* An Assessor qualification (TAQA/A1 or equivalent)
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our learners and expect all staff to share this commitment.
