The Primary Education Department in the School of Education is seeking to appoint a Lecturer or Senior Lecturer in Primary Education with a specialism in mathematics. Candidates will ideally have a specialism or interest in another area of primary education (curriculum or pedagogy) and/or initial teacher education (please state on your application). Areas such as SEND, inclusion and diversity, or a foundation subject are particularly welcome but other aspects will be considered.   

The University of Worcester (UW) has long been noted for its high quality and innovative provision in Education. As a good provider of ITE across all our provision, we are nationally recognised for our overall quality and high sustained employment rates of our new teachers.  In this context, the School of Education is seeking to appoint an inspirational and excellent Primary Education lecturer with a strong commitment to maintain and further develop our excellent reputation in teacher education and training. 

We welcome applications from school colleagues as well as those already working in ITE. The successful appointee will have significant and relevant primary teaching experience along with some successful experience of initial teacher education, teaching in Higher Education or teaching adults (CPD in school, for example).  

The successful candidate will contribute to subject and module leadership, course development and teaching in their specialist area, on our range of undergraduate and postgraduate ITE courses as well as on postgraduate professional development programmes for teachers and other professionals working with children.   In order to maintain our strong reputation for and commitment to an excellent student experience we are seeking an inspirational teacher for this role who can model excellent practice in their teaching and inspire trainee teachers to achieve their potential in the classroom. 

A clear commitment to practice-based research should be demonstrated. There should be an active engagement in continuing their own professional and academic development, demonstrating their love of learning.

Informal queries are welcome, and should be directed to Daniel Hughes Head of Department for Primary Education at [email protected]  

We value diversity and wish to promote equality at all levels
