If you are passionate about your profession and love sharing your skills with others, then we would like to hear from you. You don’t need to be a qualified teacher – we will teach you teach! We just ask that you are motivated by helping others to learn, and that you really want to make a difference to people’s lives.
If you are already an experienced lecturer, then we’d like to hear from you too. We know that you will find Abingdon & Witney College different to other colleges. Our new Strategic Plan is based around the philosophy of Be You. Be Extraordinary.
