Teacher of Economics

About Us

Edgbaston College, founded in 2015, is a small independent sixth form college located in Birmingham. We are a growing, but close-knit sixth form looking for an exceptional Economics teacher to join our team.

The core purpose of Edgbaston College is to 'Help students fulfil their ambitions'  - whether that be getting into a specific university, course or even career. To that end, we have small class sizes and provide strong pastoral support. Not only does this help our students achieve strong results, but also makes for a very enjoyable working environment.

About the Role

This is a part-time position for an A-Level Economics teacher starting in September 2021. The number of hours on offer could vary from a 0.25 - 0.5 timetable, subject to the teachers availability. 

We would also considering offering further hours if the teacher can offer A-Level Business, which is a subject we currently don't offer.

The position would involve teaching class sizes of up to 8 A-Level students, where students are generally of a higher ability. The role very much gives teachers the opportunity to teach rather than "manage".

Requirements

• A minimum of an upper second-class UK Bachelor’s degree in Economics or a Economics-related subject from a strong UK university
• Excellent subject knowledge and communication skills
• Ability to develop positive rapport with students
• Previous teaching experience of A-Level Economics

If you feel like you'd be ideal for the position, we encourage you to send your CV to owais@edgbastoncollege.co.uk or apply through TES. A CV is preferable.

Due to the current situation, we are incredibly busy and only answering priority calls. Any questions around the role and it's requirements should be put in writing via email to Owais (owais@edgbastoncollege.co.uk).
