Teacher

Teachers are responsible for educating and inspiring students in primary, secondary, or further education settings. The role involves planning lessons, delivering instruction, assessing pupils' progress, and managing classroom behaviour. Teachers work with a curriculum set by the national government or exam boards, and often specialise in particular subjects or age groups. Beyond academic instruction, teachers also play a vital role in supporting pupils' social and emotional development, liaising with parents and carers, and participating in school activities and events. Working hours typically include term-time weekdays, though additional time is often spent planning, marking, or attending meetings and training sessions.
