Hours: 37 per week (will include potential evening hours)
At CWA we offer a range of full-time or part-time courses, delivered in the daytime and over some evenings. Our alumni include nursery practitioners, teaching assistants and teachers, either through full-time courses or by working with local schools to upskill their existing staff. Our staff teach courses from entry level to Levels 1, 2, T-Levels and degree-level in Early Childhood Studies, Early Years Practitioner, Early Years Educator, Assisting Teaching and Supporting Teaching and Learning. We work in partnership with Anglia Ruskin University and are proud of our highly skilled team and the impact that our work has on our local communities.
Our lecturing staff also act as course directors, meaning that you have the ability to influence the delivery of your teaching in line with curriculum requirements.
The Early Years teaching team benefits from on-site practice nursery rooms with top-of-the-range equipment, craft rooms, IT suites, well-stocked learning resource centres, dedicated Early Years teaching rooms in the Tower Block and the University Centre, and access to the College’s on-site working nursery Applewood. We are continually investing in our facilities and resources, and during the last few years we have invested in excess of £10million into our Tower Block alone.
The College of West Anglia is a successful, community-focused FE College based in the East of England. In the last two years, our Early Years department has grown in popularity and our provision for young people and for adults is expanding, giving you an opportunity to work within an ambitious, creative and supportive team.
We offer an excellent package including a generous annual leave allowance of 37 days per year for curriculum staff (pro-rata), plus five College closure days, plus Bank Holidays (pro-rata for part-time), fee waivers on some College courses, a contributory pension scheme with the Teachers' Pension Scheme (current employer contribution is 23.68%), discounts with local businesses and access to a cycle to work scheme. CWA focuses on staff well-being and utilises both internal and external resources, such as a well-being committee and access to a free and confidential counselling helpline as well as comprehensive training and development.
