Are you a recent graduate or due to graduate in the next couple of months, looking for a career in the education sector; specifically secondary schools/colleges?

Do you have a degree specialism linked to any of the sciences and have relevant experience supporting, tutoring or assisting secondary aged students?

  • Multiple opportunities for Science graduates to support in a number of schools in the South Manchester area

  • Ideal experience for a scientist looking to progress with a career in the education sector

Working with a number of secondary schools in the South Manchester area, Teaching Personnel are looking to recruit science graduates who are looking for a career in the education sector. There are numerous opportunities for successful scientists to work within a multi-academy trust of schools. These roles will involve an element of general assistance as a teaching assistant but the majority of the role will be based within the actual science department providing support to students in small groups and providing intervention.

The successful graduates of science will be assisting with all elements of science from supporting class teachers with practical elements of lessons as well as providing intervention and specific assistance to students who require more help than their peers. There will also be the opportunity to work with students who are showing signs of higher ability, supporting them and working with them on higher level learning to stretch and challenge them.

This is a fantastic opportunity for any prospective science graduates to gain relevant experience for a future PGCE application and network within a number of supportive secondary schools.

  • Pay ranging between £285 - £350 per week depending on experience
  • Graduates of all sciences encouraged to apply
  • Work within a highly supportive multi academy trust (MAT) school in the South Manchester area
  • Science Assistant role particularly suitable for:
    • Prospective teachers of the future
    • Science graduates of Chemistry, Biology, Physics and related science based subjects
    • Academic scientists with experience of working with secondary aged students

The schools we work with are situated in South Manchester in the areas near to Levenshulme, Chorlton, Parrs Wood and Wythenshawe. Given their location, they are well placed for graduates that live in Stockport and the South Manchester areas such as Levenshulme, Didsbury and Withington as well as those in Trafford and Wythenshawe.

If you are a science graduate available in September and looking for work within a secondary school then apply now for immediate consideration.
