  •  Teaching assistance through the facilitation of seminars and/or workshops (in groups of approximately 15-25 students)

It is anticipated that a significant number of TAs will be involved in both teaching and marking. There will, however, be some opportunities for duties involving teaching only, and/or marking only. The department will make every effort to match the allocation of teaching and/or other duties to an individual’s experience, and to take account of any preferences regarding individual modules and specific duties stated at the time of application. Once appointed, TAs will be expected to show reasonable flexibility in undertaking the class teaching they are allocated. Also, since the number of students on some modules is not known until after the start of term, the department reserves the right to make last-minute adjustments to teaching loads or timetables, marking and other duties.

The allocation of class teaching to TAs will be determined by academic staff in the School.

Salary is £21.55 per hour, plus an additional market supplement of £12.54 an hour, bringing the hourly rate to £34.09 per hour (please note; marking is paid at different rates depending on type of marking and length of scripts).
