Job Description
Foundation Learning Teacher – Barnsley College - Permanent - £27,850 to £31,280 per annum
Foundation learning is a provision in place to enable students experiencing barriers to learning to progress onto a higher-level programme, where this might not previously have been possible. For our teachers this can be challenging, but also extremely rewarding.

The successful candidate can be new to teaching or an experienced Foundation Learning Teacher – we are looking for someone who will work hard to transform the lives of our young people and support them onto a positive future.
