T
he UK's further and
higher education
sector offers many
opportunities in
both teaching and
non-teaching roles.
Universities employ more than 217,000
academic staff, as well as nearly 223,000
staff in other types of positions, according
to the Higher Education Statistic Agency,
while the Association of Colleges says
more than 111,000 people are employed
full-time in Britain's further education
colleges, where students can study for
A-levels, foundation degrees, HNDs and
HNCs, and undertake apprenticeships.
Education administrator
In this role you'll make strategic
decisions to help run a college
efficiently. It could include financial
planning and budgeting, analysing
data and interpreting regulations.
What skills and qualifications do
I need? Great organisation skills are
a must, while financial planning and
Learning mentors work alongside teachers
to help students overcome barriers to
learning, such as lack of self-confidence
institutions - again, around half of
them non-academic. Teaching in such
an institution can be an ideal second
career because you are able to pass on
the knowledge you gained from working
to a new generation eager to absorb it.
If you'd like a career spent inspiring
others to learn or enabling the education
of thousands of students, have a look
at our selection of the roles available.
Further education
For school leavers, further education
(FE) provides a continuity to their
studies and helps them to develop skills
and career opportunities. There are
2.2 million FE students in the UK, 1.4
million of whom are adults. Studies take
place in sixth-form colleges as well as FE
people skills are high on the list. A
degree will set you apart, especially
if it's in business administration.
Teaching and school management
experience count for a lot.
How much can I earn? Salaries
start around £17,000 but can rise to
between £27,000 and £40,000.
Learning mentor
Working alongside teachers and other
staff, you'll help students overcome
barriers to learning such as lack of selfconfidence or behavioural difficulties,
to help them achieve their potential.
You may work on a one-to-one basis and
visit them and their parents at home.
What skills and qualifications do
I need? Good communication and
listening skills are essential, as is the
ability to gain trust. Some positions
require a degree, but as a minimum
you'll need good numeracy and
literacy skills. Experience of working
with young people will help.
How much can I earn? Salaries
start at £14,500 to £17,000, and
can rise to more than £25,000.
Further education lecturer
As well as holding seminars and tutorials,
you'll plan and prepare lessons, work
with exam boards, check students'
progress and develop teaching materials.
What skills and qualifications do I
need? You'll need to be able to motivate
students of all abilities, and have brilliant
planning skills. In most cases, you'll
need a teaching qualification such as a
level 3 award in education and training.
If you have a degree and take a level 5
diploma, you'll be awarded a PGCE.
How much can I earn? Salaries start at
£24,000; with experience you can earn
between £36,000 and £40,000. Senior
lecturers earn from £40,000 to £80,000.
