SoSS Teaching Roadmap

 Collegial Service and Leadership

Most colleagues involved with teaching will have contractual obligations to provide some form of service and leadership in T&L.

Examples of service are roles which support (through the application of regulations and policies) the running of programmes and the teaching (and assessment) of departments; e.g. internal exam moderator, exam officer, mitigating circumstances officer, academic malpractice officer, etc.

Examples of leaderships are roles with requires coordination and support of other colleagues, the evaluation, creation and updating of policies and operational approaches, the preparation and implementation of strategic agendas; e.g. departmental T&L leads, School Director of T&L, School Senior Academic Advisor, etc.

Professional Services and Academic colleagues must work in partnership to support the delivery of teaching, learning and student experience. Academic supervision should be effective and must include opportunities for reflection, feedback and reviewing of student achievement/progress. 

Note: some of the roles mentioned below may not be available/applicable is some departments; nomenclature may also vary across the School. Please, get in touch with your Mentor, T&L Lead or Head of Department for guidance.
