The School of Health and Social Care has an excellent reputation for teaching and research in health and social care. Our academic members of staff include health policy, services, and systems scholars, occupational therapists, speech and language therapists, psychological therapists, nurses, social workers, oral health practitioners, psychologists, and sociologists. The School is run over two campuses: Southend and Colchester. Academic staff are supported by a team of administrative staff based at both Colchester and Southend campuses.
The School is at the forefront of preparing people to solve real-life issues in health and society, offering courses and research that both commissioners and employers believe in. People are at the heart of all we do. We work in partnership with people from all walks of life, who offer us their expertise and experience, making us a team of people who truly understand what is needed from health and social care professionals – now and in the future.
In 2017, we were awarded a silver Athena SWAN award, which recognises the commitment the School has towards equality and development of an inclusive culture promoting dignity and respect. We are currently working on an application for a gold Athena SWAN award and are at the forefront of developing anti-racism training for health and social care students and practitioners. These are, of course, qualities that are also endorsed by the values of the NHS constitution with which all staff and students of the School engage.
The School is currently going through exciting changes and expansion, with an increase in student numbers, and the introduction of new courses, including the new Assistant Practitioner Apprenticeship and Masters in Global Public Health. We have also expanded new and innovative areas for student study, including new clinical skills spaces, consultation rooms and study areas.
As part of this exciting expansion, we are now looking to appoint a Lecturer to work on the Assistant Practitioner (Health) apprenticeship programme on our Colchester Campus and other foundation degree level programmes across the school. We’re looking for an educator with significant clinical experience who has experience or an interest apprenticeships, teaching and learning. This is an opportunity to join a growing team and help develop the key knowledge, skills, and behaviours of the next generation of health and social care professionals.
