We are looking for a Curriculum and Assessment Coordinator to lead Maths, English, qualifications and accreditation across our Alternative Provision and Intervention programmes in Nuneaton.

- Registering learners, managing qualification trackers and achievement records, and coordinating portfolios, evidence and submissions
- Liaising with awarding organisations and moderators, and making sure deadlines and requirements are met
- Coordinating exam entries, access arrangements and reasonable adjustments, and supporting our progression towards becoming an approved exam centre
- Supporting staff to understand qualification requirements and evidence collection, and completing lesson observations
- Delivering sessions directly with young people across both provisions
- Delivering and supporting our Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) programme during the school holidays
