Barbering Tutor

TN United Kingdom; York; On-site; GBP 30,000; Full time

Job description

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.
