Resource Developer
Vacancy Reference: 185053
Salary: Grade 7, £41,064 - £46,049 per annum
We are seeking a Resource Developer for the recently launched Turner-Kirk Centre for Spatial Reasoning at the University of Glasgow. A key function of the Centre is to deliver STEM SPACE, a programme introducing spatial reasoning development to Scottish primary schools via mathematics lessons, to accelerate maths skills development and prepare pupils for success in STEM subjects when they reach secondary school. This programme aims to roll out spatial reasoning development to 800 schools, or 40% of all Scottish primary schools, across all 32 local authorities in Scotland; we expect this level of adoption, with demonstrated success, will lead to a tipping point where all schools adopt the approach.
There are four key aspects to the Centre’s activities: setting up the Centre and day-to-day operations; enrolling and supporting the 32 local authorities to roll out the spatial reasoning approach to their schools; collecting and analysing evidence about the adoption and success of the approach; and enhancing the teaching materials to ensure universal access for learners of all backgrounds. A Project Officer post will take a lead on the first three aspects; this Resource Developer post will take a lead on the last aspect, while supporting the first three where necessary.
You will analyse and identify universal access issues with the STEM SPACE lesson plans and digital materials, through consultation with designers and practising teachers. You will also independently develop and trial enhanced versions of the existing plans and materials that will be usable in any classroom and with pupils of any background. In addition, you will investigate new Centre activities, and provide support where necessary for Centre operations and STEM SPACE roll-out to local authorities.
This post has funding for up to 32 months and is full time (35 hours per week), however applicants wanting to work part-time will also be considered.
