Warrington, United Kingdom CV-Library Full time

Are you currently working in education and looking for a new challenge? Are you passionate about making a difference in learners' lives? Would you like the opportunity to teach smaller group sizes so that your delivery can have a greater impact? Do you want a rewarding career with opportunities for progression where you will experience genuine job satisfaction?

We have a great opportunity to join our education team as a Cover Tutor for Novus, the prison education provider working at the region of North West: HMP Buckley Hall, HMP Liverpool, HMP Risley, HMP Thorn Cross and HMP Hindley. The role can be based predominantly at HMP Risley.

This role is offered on a sessional basis, working ad hoc hours per week. Specialising in Functional Skills - English & Maths.

What the role entails

In this role, you will work with, and be supported by, our amazing team of dedicated professionals to mentor our learners to develop their reading, writing, speaking, and listening, which will in turn help them to secure future employment opportunities post-release. You will need patience, passion and understanding in your approach to ­­­our learners who have 'hit a bump in the road' but want to learn and improve.

Working in a prison is different to a mainstream education facility. We operate with security at the forefront of what we do, so our class sizes are small to maximise supportive delivery. To aid this you also will be supported by Learning Support Practitioners & Student Support Workers who will support with one to one when required. Our security team are on hand to ensure the lessons run smoothly. We always try to cater to a learner's individual needs and ensure we create a positive learner experience. Time will be given to planning and your Local Education Manager is always on hand to provide support as and when needed. Delivery happens between Monday and Friday and weekends are strictly for rest and relaxation.

A teaching qualification or subject specialist qualification at Level 4 (Level 5 - new standards) with a commitment to obtain the relevant outstanding Level 4 (Level 5 - new standards) qualification within a specified time scale (required)
Hold at least a Level 2 qualification in Literacy and Numeracy
Track record of effective teaching in subject specialism
Gain/hold and maintain a clean, enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check.Ideally, you will want to be a part of a team which has at its core a focus on improving lives and enabling and equipping learners to develop, grow and be equipped for a life of work and success. You'll be a self-starter with a passion to learn and grow yourself and will bring passion, dedication, and positivity to your new role.

Colleague Benefits

As part of the LTE Group family, you will benefit from an excellent package including:

Extensive annual leave which can be taken throughout the year and not restricted to school holiday times.
