The Trafford and Stockport College Group (TSCG) has an opportunity for a Social Science Teacher to join the Academic Studies team to help us achieve our vision of unlocking potential and fostering success.
The Role:
We are seeking an enthusiastic Social Science Lecturer to join our supportive and dynamic team. You will be teaching motivated and well-behaved students who are eager to learn. The primary focus will be on delivering engaging GCSE Psychology lessons, although for the right candidate, A Level teaching opportunities may also be available.

About you:

You will be passionate about inspiring young people and committed to delivering high-quality teaching and learning experiences. You should hold a relevant degree and a teaching qualification (or be working towards one) and have a strong subject knowledge in Psychology. Whether you are an ECT or a more experienced practitioner, you will be a team player who brings energy, creativity, and a willingness to contribute to the wider department and college community. Flexibility, enthusiasm, and a dedication to student success are essential.
