Job description
Would you like to work in an exciting and dynamic team, helping school children, families and young people to engage with our original historical sources through workshops and creative projects?
The Education and Outreach Department at The National Archives are looking for an enthusiastic, innovative and talented educator to join our successful team. Working with original archival material, you will research, develop and deliver taught workshops for schools (from KS1 – KS5) both onsite and online; design and lead family sessions as part of our exciting Time Travel Club programme; and play a role in helping to steer and run our creative projects for young people.
In addition to this, you will also support the delivery and development of our growing SEND provision for schools and the growth of our CPD work with teachers. You will have the opportunity to work collaboratively across the department and to support the Outreach team with their delivery of community and regional programming.
The department has a commitment to increase our regional reach, as well as engage more diverse audiences. We are also continuing to explore lesser told stories and diverse histories through our programme. It is an exciting time for the Education service as provision is growing, supported by the addition of new purpose built learning spaces.
We would particularly like to encourage applicants from backgrounds currently underrepresented in archives, including those who identify as Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender (LGBT+), from Black, Asian and minority ethnic cultural backgrounds, those who are neurodivergent, and those with hidden or visible disabilities.
