Description

Job Summary

We run after school clubs that provide children with opportunities to explore their imagination using lego and technology. A number of our club leaders are artists or designers and spending a few hours a week running these clubs has worked nicely alongside their other work.

Job Description

We run four types of clubs:

Building Blocks - Art and Design club where students get to explore projects and games such as abstract art, bridge building, tree house making and zip line challenges.

Programmable Robotics - A club where students learn to build and code small interactive robots. They are able to do this even if they have absolutely no prior experience of robotics or coding.

Virtual Reality Design - Our newest club, where children learn to build 3D worlds and then bring what's on the screen into the real world. (Think projected solar systems and planets flying through the classroom)

Game Design: An engaging club where students dive into building their own arcade games, mastering the fundamentals of coding, character logic, and interactive storytelling as they transform their creative ideas into playable digital experiences.

Job Requirements

No prior experience is needed as we provide training for each of these.

What We Offer
Competitive pay: The starting rate is £35ph for Building Blocks and £40 for our other clubs. This increases by £5ph after 3 terms of teaching. We also cover travel expenses.
Fully equipped: All teaching materials and ready-to-use lesson plans are provided.
Supportive community: Connect with a vibrant network of fellow educators to share tips and ideas.
Local: Run weekly term-time sessions across London (typically 3:30-4:30 PM, with some double sessions) at schools close to where you live.

Expected working hours when starting are 1 or 2 slots per week between 3:30 - 4:30pm. Depending on your availability this can increase up to 5 days a week with some days having double sessions (from 3:30 - 5:30pm).

Job Responsibilities

What We Are Looking For.

Childcare confidence: A natural ability and confidence working with children (no formal teaching qualification required).
Reliable commitment: Able to commit to teaching at least one weekly hour session for the whole term.
Compliance: Must hold an Enhanced DBS certificate (or be willing to let us apply for one on your behalf) and complete safeguarding documentation.
Training readiness: Willing to participate in a 2-hour initial training session and go over teaching materials before each session
We are a young company that is continuing to grow and are looking for people to get involved and bring their passions and skills.
