Summary

Join Hyett Education as a Workshop Activity Instructor!
Do you have a passion for inspiring young minds?

Hyett Education delivers fun, hands-on workshops to children aged 5–14. We’re growing our team and looking for enthusiastic individuals to join us, to deliver workshops across Berkshire, Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire and London.

Our workshops predominantly link to Science, Computing, Engineering and Maths. No STEM background? No problem! We’ll provide full training and support.
We will consider either a Trainee position (without QTS) or a QTS (Qualified Teacher Status) position. Part-time hours will also be considered.

What we offer:
Salary:
Trainee Instructors: £18,000–£24,000 during training, rising to £30,000
Instructors with QTS: £30,000–£40,000.

Benefits:
28 days annual leave, sick pay, maternity/paternity pay, travel & meal expenses covered.

Training & Support:
First Aid and Safeguarding training.
Training in workshop delivery will include shadowing and team-teaching alongside our instructors and receiving any further support from our vastly experienced teachers.

What you will do:
Provide stimulating STEM educational experiences for children aged 5-14 year olds in schools.
Travel across the South East - Berkshire, Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, as well as North, West and South London.
Be part of a small but growing team making a big impact in education.

Who we are looking for:

Reliable, personable, and confident working with children.
Punctual and organised - be prepared for lots of variety!
Able to build positive relationships with schools and colleagues.
Subject knowledge in Science, Computing, Engineering and Mathematics is desired but not essential.
A UK driving licence and your own vehicle - all fuel, travel and meal expenses are covered (a company car may be provided in certain circumstances).
Current Clear Enhanced DBS will be required, prior to start.

Our team is a mix of ex-teachers, teaching assistants and even stage performers - if you are creative, energetic and ready to inspire, we would love to hear from you!

Main office: WV10 (team training once per term).

Typical workshop day: 7.45am – 3.30pm (workshop hours between 9am - 3.15pm with children). We expect staff to arrive onsite at 7.45am to set up, and typical pack down takes 30-45 mins. On occasion, there may be up to 2 hours travel each way, or the need to stay overnight near the workshop location.

Start Date: Monday 5th January 2026 or Wednesday 18th February 2026.

Apply now and help us bring STEM to life in schools!
