Module Leader (Portfolios)

Location: Home/Law School Bristol, Birmingham, Cambridge, Leeds, London or Manchester

Contract: Permanent, Full-Time / Fractional

Leading our Portfolio Modules

BPP Law School is seeking to appoint a Module Leader with responsibility for its portfolio modules across a range of Law School programmes. As a Law School we are increasingly using portfolio based assessment to assess professional behaviours and other legal skills.

What you’ll be doing

As a Module Leader you will be an academic leader who will play a vital role in upholding educational standards and maintaining the quality of modules and assessments in your subject area.

Across the academic year, Module Leaders participate in designing materials, teaching, creating assessments, marking and providing feedback to students but their more substantial role is to coach, direct and support others in the same tasks.

The role will involve working collaboratively with other members of the Curriculum team. The team’s goal is to develop and maintain a curriculum that is accessible and inclusive, that builds a motivation and appetite to learn, whilst making a significant and positive contribution to a student’s overall experience.   

As the Module Leader responsible for our portfolio modules, you will be assisting in the development of the SQE portfolio assessments, including the creation of assessment materials, guidance documents and materials to assist staff who are marking those portfolios. You will work with the apprenticeships coaches and leadership team to support portfolio teaching and marking, including the creation of materials to support both apprentices and coaches. You will also work closely with various stakeholders to enhance the assessment of portfolios on a formative and summative basis.

Choose a better work-life balance

With hybrid working available, you’ll be able to split your time between one of our centres and wherever you choose to call home. Either way, you’ll benefit from a vibrant workplace and a culture that believes in looking after others, while being part of a diverse workforce where difference is celebrated. In addition, you’ll work alongside other like-minded professionals who champion progress, while having opportunities to develop in an environment where creativity and innovation is rewarded. 

On top of a competitive salary, we provide a generous annual leave entitlement of 30 days, and there’s a rewards package that includes retail discounts, Group Personal Pension Plan, dedicated healthcare and dental plans that offer additional assurance to look after you and your family. Brilliantly, you can also study any of BPP’s courses for free – be it a professional qualification or full degree.

What we’re looking for

You will have a passion for teaching and learning, be able to uphold and champion curriculum and teaching excellence, whilst role modelling the values and traits of a highly capable and effective leader. The role of a Module Leader is multi-faceted and requires strong organisational and leadership skills to perform the role effectively.   

The role would particularly suit someone with experience of using portfolio assessment on one or more programmes who has a passion for maintaining high standards of teaching and assessment as well as striving for improvement based on teaching experience and academic literature on teaching and learning best practice.
