Students are also introduced to a range of practical, direct work approaches including the use of art, play and role play. An overview of your role and responsibilities includes: Confirming the comparability of standards of student performance at University of Bradford with those of similar modules at other UK Institutions of Higher Education; confirming that the assessment process in its entirety is sound, and has been fairly conducted with full regard to justice to students; reporting and advising on the above by means of approving coursework and examination papers and providing an annual report to the University. The appointee will be required to moderate a sample of work, to produce an annual report and to participate in Boards of Examiners meetings as appropriate. You should have appropriate expertise in one or more of the subject areas: child development, interagency working, communication skills, values and ethics, child and family interventions, childcare law, work-based learning plus experience of teaching on a social care programme with a focus on children or children and families.
