Are you looking for the perfect progression opportunity which will be the start of the next step in your teaching career? Our Teaching and Learning Manager is the role for you.
Brighton Met College is a dynamic and inclusive further education college based in the busy North Laines area in the heart of the city. Our Creative Industries department is dedicated to providing high-quality education and training to young people and adults studying art, fashion, photography, film, creative media, 3D Design, graphics and illustration. With a strong reputation for excellence in creative arts, we are seeking an enthusiastic and experienced Teaching and Learning Manager to lead our Art and Photography provision for 16-19-year-olds.
As the Teaching and Learning Manager, you will play a key role in ensuring outstanding teaching, learning, and assessment practices across our Art & Photography courses. You will work closely with curriculum teams to drive innovation, improve student outcomes, and foster a culture of excellence. This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced educator with a passion for creative arts.
Although primarily a management position, the Teaching and Learning Manager role requires you to teach 3 hours per week, which will enable you to lead by example and ensure you are able to continue your teaching directly with students that inspired you to start your teaching career in the first place.
Our Teaching and Learning Manager will hold a full teaching qualification and a Level 3 or higher qualification relevant to the area. You will bring a wealth of teaching experience from the Further Education sector and be able to demonstrate up-to-date teaching methodologies.
