Job overview
You will work alongside a team of well-established UTC staff within the faculty of Sport and Health Sciences to continue to develop the UTC as a centre of excellence focusing on Computing, Sport and Health Sciences. Together under the direction of the Curriculum Directors you will support the delivery of a range of vocational qualifications including Level 2 OCR Cambridge Nationals and Level 3 OCR Cambridge Technicals. Qualification specifications can be found in the curriculum information sheet found on the UTC website. Staff may be required to teach other subjects within the faculty, therefore experience and/or a willingness to teach Health and Social Care, and/or Social Sciences would be a distinct advantage, but not essential.
