The Skills Development team offer qualifications from Entry Level to GCSE in various subjects, including but not limited to, English, Maths, Digital Skills, and ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages). Within this department is also the LFA (Learning for All) provision where we run courses promoting skills and independence for those adults with learning difficulties and/or disabilities, and the Community Engagement team who work with job seekers and learners who may not generally access learning, holding courses from CV writing and interview skills to budgeting and confidence building.
Our Community Learning provision includes the Family Learning team, who work together with parents and carers, so they have more confidence with supporting their children at home; and the Learning for Personal Development team, who mostly offer non-accredited courses ranging from a variety of Languages and Fitness to Art, Floristry, Sewing, Pottery, and a wide range of Creative Studies subjects.
About You
The successful candidates will hold a relevant subject specialism qualification at Level 4 or 5, together with a DTLLS, PGCE, or equivalent teaching qualification. They will demonstrate a strong commitment to promoting lifelong learning and be able to evidence this through their practice.
