We are seeking to appoint a Lecturer to deliver a range of English qualifications to 16+ learners who are required to re-sit English as part of their study programme. Learners will work towards achieving a minimum grade 4 in GCSE English whilst studying at Suffolk New College.

Additionally, we offer part time adult functional skills English classes that will run in the evening. This may form a part of the role.

You will have a passion for engaging and motivating young adults, demonstrating innovation and best teaching practice to provide an exceptional experience. You will be able to plan and assess effectively to meet the needs of your learners to enable them to achieve their full potential.

Suffolk New College can provide relevant teacher training to those individuals who can demonstrate the potential to become effective teachers.

You should have a degree in English or a related degree or a Level 5 qualification in teaching English along with a teaching qualification or a commitment to obtaining one within a specified period.

At Suffolk New College, we promote the culture of BeSNC.  Implementing BeSNC is not just a choice; it's a commitment to providing the best possible environment for our learners to thrive. It's a commitment to nurturing an inclusive and supportive community where each student, staff and community member can reach their full potential.
