Job Level: Head of Specialism Education Studies / Teacher Training, General Education
Contract Type: Permanent
Hours: Full Time
Organisational Type: General Further Education College
We are seeking to appoint a passionate and innovative educator that has the experience and credibility to inspire our teachers to enhance their already excellent TLA practice. Through coaching, practical advice, delivering masterclasses and hands-on demonstrations, you will lead them to incorporate the latest and emerging learning technologies, and pedagogical practices into their lessons.
You will lead a team of Advanced Practitioners and Digital/LRC Specialists, and have ownership of the Learning Resource Centre, to help you drive your vision of inspirational teaching and learning across the college. While this base location will be a really important hub for showcasing TEL and enabling access to traditional learning resources, you will spend much of your time in classrooms, our immersive and simulation suites, team teaching, exploring and horizon scanning, and being a source of enthusiasm for all things TLA and TEL!
This role requires helping colleagues explore and realize what is possible, taking best practices externally and bringing them to Shipley - helping our colleagues visualize where they would like to get to, and putting in practical steps to help them achieve their goals. Reporting to the Vice Principal - Curriculum, you will work in partnership with colleagues across the whole college, particularly our teachers, Heads of Department, Head of Quality, and Head of Learning Support, and work closely with senior leadership to support a culture of innovation and continuous professional development.
Contact: To arrange an informal discussion prior to applying (if necessary), please contact Greg O'Shea (Vice Principal - Curriculum) at goshea@shipley.ac.uk.
