Inspire Learning is keen to grow our team of tutors to help grow, develop and deliver a broad programme of adult learning across Bassetlaw. Much of this will be delivered from dedicated spaces in our libraries.

We are looking for inspiring, qualified adult educators with skills and passion to work with adults across the District. We are interested in developing a wide range of subject specialisms, in response to the needs and requests of adults in Bassetlaw, so please do consider applying if you think you may have a subject which may be of interest. Courses can be accredited or unaccredited.

We are particularly keen to grow our programme in: • IT and Digital Skills • ESOL • maths • sustainability and green skills • languages • art • crafts • design • literature • local and family history • teacher training • teaching assistant qualifications • science • social science • political and citizenship education • coaching and mentoring • leadership and management • family learning • health and social care

The work is flexible – time and venues, as well as the size of your programme, will be agreed with you. We are keen to extend our evening and weekend offer, as well as our weekday one. There is also likely to be the opportunity to tutor courses elsewhere in Nottinghamshire and online.

You will ideally hold a current valid driving licence and have access to a vehicle.

We are actively championing inclusion and diversity in both our service offer and our employment: we particularly welcome your application if you are black, Asian or from a minority ethnic group, as you are currently under-represented at this level in our organisation.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and adults and we expect all staff to share this commitment and undergo appropriate checks. As such, this post will be subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check.
