We are looking to appoint well-qualified, self-motivated and enthusiastic Teacher of Business, Accounting or Economics, who will help us provide the best possible learning experiences and outcomes for our students. It is planned that this post will be based at our Regent Road Campus.

We believe that this is a particularly exciting time to be joining us, offering a real opportunity to make a difference in this thriving and vibrant Sixth Form College. We strive for excellence in all aspects of our work with students; their academic and wider achievements, their learning experiences, the support they receive in their academic progress, their learning environment and their wider experience of College life. The College operates across two closely located campuses, next to the University of Leicester on University Road and a smaller campus at Regent Road.

Business, Economics and Finance is a vibrant curriculum area. We teach A Levels in Accounting (AQA), Business (Edexcel) and Economics (AQA). We also teach CTEC Level 3 Business (Extended Certificate, Diploma and Extended Diploma) and the Cambridge Technical in Business at Level 2.

The area is led by a Curriculum Area Leader who is supported by a Deputy and two Assistant Curriculum Area Leaders. Together they ensure the provision of high quality outcomes and experiences for students and lead the on-going development of teaching, learning and assessment. The area is accommodated in a modern teaching block and uses well-appointed modern classrooms. There are a good range of resources including excellent online materials, and interactive whiteboards.

In addition to the examination courses, staff from the department also offer courses within the Enrichment and Extension Programmes. Some teachers also contribute to the work of cross-College courses such as the Extended Project Qualification.

Overall, we are one of the largest Business, Accounting and Economics providers in the country.

For our part we shall make every effort to support our new colleagues in making the best of the professional opportunities offered by this post.

This is a full time, term time permanent post commencing August 2024.
