Functional skills Teacher - September 2019

A higher education provider situated in Central Oldham are looking to appoint a Functional Skills Teacher for a September 2019. This role will involve working 8.30am - 4.00pm and will involve working 5 days per week Monday - Friday. This position is an ongoing long term position.

• The ability to establish and maintain working relationships with other staff, pupils, parents and the wider community

• The ability to assess pupil's progress
