You’ll teach small, focused groups of adult learners with a wide range of educational backgrounds, learning needs and abilities.

• Conducting initial assessments and diagnostics to establish learners’ starting points, then setting up and maintaining Individual Learning Plans.
• Designing inclusive, differentiated lessons that cater to diverse abilities and additional needs, preparing learners thoroughly for formal assessments.
• Promoting numeracy and functional literacy across the prison environment while working alongside prison staff, support practitioners and employability teams.

What We’re Looking For

Essential:

• A Level 3 qualification in Maths
• Proven experience delivering Functional Skills Maths
• Strong classroom management and lesson planning skills
• Excellent administrative capability, including maintaining ILPs and tracking progress
• Resilience and professionalism to work in a secure environment

Desirable (but not essential):

• A Level 5 teaching qualification (PGCE, Cert Ed, DTLLS or equivalent)
• Prior experience within prison education, FE or adult learning settings
• Familiarity with BKSB diagnostic tools
• Knowledge of Ofsted's Education Inspection Framework (EIF)
