About the Role

Are you a passionate, resilient, and student-centred educator looking to make a meaningful difference? The RNN Group is seeking a dynamic Lecturer to join our Inclusive Curriculum team, primarily delivering within the Engage provision.

The Engage programme is a specialized 14–16 Electively Home Educated (EHE) initiative designed to support young people who have experienced disrupted education or been home-schooled. In this role, you will help these learners re-engage with education, rebuild their confidence, and prepare for post-16 vocational study pathways across our campuses.

Beyond the core Engage provision, you will also contribute to our wider Inclusive Curriculum, including FLEX and Project-Based Learning (PBL) programmes. These initiatives specifically support learners with SEND, SEMH needs, or other significant barriers to education through skilled, trauma-informed, and restorative practices.

You will have…

• Experience teaching or working with 14–16 learners, EHE students, or alternative education provisions.
• Experience supporting learners with SEND, SEMH needs, or complex barriers to learning.
• A recognised Teaching Qualification or a specialist SEND qualification.
• Level 2 Literacy and Numeracy (GCSE C/4 or above) or equivalent.

We understand that no candidate will perfectly match every qualification or criterion listed. If your experience differs from what we've outlined but you believe you can contribute to this role, we encourage you to apply!
