Education to take up appointment on 1st February 2006. The person
appointed will contribute principally to teaching on the BA Education

Our new BA Education and Training (QTS) programme is a two-year

students who have completed a relevant Foundation Degree. The programme

Foundation Degree entitled Working with Children.
For this lecturer post you should have evidence of relevant research, or
