‘Would you like to be part of a team that aims to create the extraordinary?’
Our Organisation
Nelson and Colne College Group is a beacon for educational excellence, made up of a family of colleges – Nelson & Colne College, Accrington & Rossendale College and Lancashire Adult Learning. The College Group is the only Further Education college in Lancashire to be graded as ‘Outstanding’ under the new Ofsted inspection framework and the only college to maintain `Outstanding` status for the last 20 years.
Together the Group forms a Sixth Form, Skills and Technology Centre, University Centre, employer training and adult learning provider delivering exceptional teaching and learning to all ages and at all levels.
Nelson and Colne College has a national reputation for educational success that generations of families have benefited from. We pride ourselves on our individual approach to learning, where students receive outstanding teaching and support, extensive extracurricular opportunities and fantastic facilities.
The Exciting Role
A new and exciting opportunity has become available for a Teacher of A level and some L3 Biology (Access to HE Biology)
You will be part of a highly successful team of dedicated staff delivering A level Biology and some L3 Access Biology to our learners at Nelson and Colne College. It would be advantageous if you could also deliver some L3 Chemistry.
In particular, the A level and all L3 programmes aim:
* To provide a highly ambitious curriculum and academic programme of study which inspires students to achieve their very best and which supports them to aim high and reach the extraordinary.
* To ensure the provision of a high-quality academic 6th form, offering a broad range of relevant A Level subjects.
* To support students to progress onto higher education and then onto exciting and ambitious careers.
* To ensure a strong focus on adding value, realising aspirations and equipping students with the knowledge, skills and behaviours needed to progress onto the best universities.
* To provide students with the widest range of experiences possible, building cultural capital; inspiring and enabling them to make a lasting and positive contribution to the wider society.
The successful candidate will be primarily based at Nelson campus but may be required to travel across sites to our Accrington campus so a driving license and access to a vehicle is an essential requirement.
This post could suit an experienced practitioner looking for their next challenge, a newly qualified teacher looking to make their mark within an Outstanding organisation, or a talented aspiring trainee teacher looking for support with their teaching qualification.
What You Will Be Doing
* Plan, deliver and assess A level and L3 Biology to our learners.
* Support our learners academically but also in the capacity as a personal tutor.
* The ideal candidate will be a dynamic practitioner who promotes and upholds the same high expectations as the College and its students. With a focus on sharing good practice, they will be committed to their own continuous professional development and will engage enthusiastically with our quality processes to ensure that our students receive an Outstanding experience.
What We Are Looking For
* The successful candidate will be enthusiastic with excellent subject knowledge and a passion for teaching Biology.
* An ability to deliver L3 Chemistry would be advantageous.
* Can deliver outstanding teaching, learning and support to our learners.
