“It is fantastic that the Department for Education has funded this campaign on TV and social media to recruit more people into teaching in colleges and further education. Teaching in a college is such a fulfilling and varied career to enter, with lots of opportunities for development; many people don’t realise how straightforward it is to turn the skills they’ve learnt in their current or past careers into skills that can be utilised in a classroom or workshop. Barking & Dagenham College offers a range of options to study for a career in teaching that complements your real-life work skills. These include studying part-time or full time or being employed as an apprentice to become a learning and skills teacher.“
