Ever considered working in a prison? It might not be what you expect - in fact, it could be one of the most rewarding and meaningful roles you'll ever take on. For many in custody, education offers hope, structure, and a chance to rebuild. For you, it offers the chance to be part of that transformation - every single day. In this role you'll be part of a close-knit team, working face-to-face with both colleagues and learners. You'll benefit from clear boundaries between work and home life, with no working from home allowed. That means NO MARKING, NO PLANNING in your weekends or evenings. Prisons have dedicated education departments, complete with classrooms and fully-equipped workshops where learning takes place. Despite the challenges of the environment, you'll be supported every step of the way by an experienced education team, with access to ongoing training and professional development. Details of this position: This position is for a Learning Facilitator to work in prison education. The role involves providing both individual and group support to learners, helping them deepen their understanding and encouraging their educational and personal development. Assist in delivering learning activities that foster academic success and personal growth. Offer tailored support to individuals and groups to enhance engagement and build self-confidence. Help create and sustain a positive, inclusive, and productive learning environment. Accurately track and record learner attendance, progress, and outcomes. Work collaboratively with teaching staff, prison officers, and other key stakeholders to meet learners' educational needs. Work schedule: 3 x 12 hour days 8am-8pm Monday - Friday with some flexibility to cover Saturday between the team. Salary scale: £27,600 per annum Benefits: Generous annual leave entitlement.
