This is an exciting opportunity for an outstanding academic or practitioner to join a highly professional and motivated team within the Three Counties School of Nursing and Midwifery. We have a reputation for contemporary and innovative Nursing and Midwifery provision, including apprenticeships. Our NMC approved programmes are nationally recognised for their high quality, student satisfaction, and sustained high employability of our graduates.
The primary focus of this role is the delivery of our pre-registration portfolio, spanning across the FdSc Nursing Associate and BSc (Hons) Nursing to include delivery at the University of Worcester and the Dudley satellite campus (subject to approval). As a member of our dedicated academic team, the post holder will be expected to teach a range of core subjects and should have a flexible approach to the subject material they teach. The post holder will, therefore, be committed to promoting academic enquiry, helping develop critical thinking in students by supporting safe, effective and evidence-based practice. By providing expert knowledge, you will lead agreed modules, assess students and supervise projects. The post holder should be able to draw upon his or her own subject knowledge to design teaching sessions that maximise the integration of theory to practice.
The post holder will possess the ability to inspire students, colleagues, practice partners and employers alike and be committed to compliance with regulatory and quality assurance processes.
The Three Counties School of Nursing and Midwifery upholds the University mission to inspire those who teach and those who learn, in an inclusive way, which reflects a collective commitment to equip students and staff with the skills, knowledge and aptitude to make a positive impact on the health of the individuals, populations and communities we serve. As such, the post holder will have opportunities for professional development to align with the role and the objectives of the school.
