Self-managed Learning College

College Programmes Coordinator

A genuinely exciting new coordinating role is available at the Self Managed Learning College (SMLC), to assist in taking our work forward.

SML College is unique in supporting young people to manage their own learning. Our students decide for themselves what, how, why, where and when they want to learn. Our role as adults in assisting this learning is subtle but crucial.

Our democratic style means we don’t have a principal, head teacher, director or anyone controlling the day-to-day operation of SMLC – indeed, we don’t have any teachers as such since we don’t have any classrooms. We now need someone to coordinate our growing work with young people (aged 9-17) and to assist in the development of SML College as we move into bigger and better premises.

The person appointed will report to the Chair of Governors, Dr Ian Cunningham.

Salary £32,000 per annum – this is a permanent post.

For more information please email info@smlcollege.org.uk

The final closing date for applications is 14 July 2017. Ian Cunningham will be available from July 3rd to deal with any questions. Informal interviews for the short list will start on July 4th and applicants outside the area may be able to have such an interview via Skype or phone. Final selection will occur in the Brighton and Hove area.
