    Understanding Roles and

    Responsibilities in Education
    and Training
    1
    This is the second extract from this weeks Book of the Week A Complete Guide to the Level
    4 Certificate in Education and Teaching by Lynn Machin, Duncan Hindmarsh, Sandra Murray
    and Tina Richardson. It is taken from p31.
    What are your roles as a teacher?
    As a teacher, one of your main roles is to motivate your learners to develop their ability and
    aspiration to learn. You may read about delivering training and facilitating learning , but in
    reality you do much more than that. Your role is not just about teaching your subject or
    preparing learners for assessment. The focus of your role relates very much to inspiring your
    learners to change and develop their personal, social and professional skills to the best of
    their ability. In this respect, your ultimate aim is to enable your learners to understand how
    to take responsibility for their own development. You can do this by planning and preparing
    teaching and learning activities that take account of the needs and well-being of individual
    learners as well as groups of learners. Some key aspects of your role as a teacher may be:
    carrying out initial and/or diagnostic assessments;
    clear communication with your learners, other professionals and stakeholders;
    promoting appropriate behaviour and respect for others;
    identifying and meeting individual learners needs;
    being aware of the support mechanisms available;
    being organised;
    being reflective, which means learning from successes as well as mistakes.
    What are your responsibilities as a teacher?
    As a teacher, a primary responsibility is to ensure that learners are enrolled onto the correct
    course, in terms of meeting their needs, abilities and aspirations. Further to this, you need to
    ensure that your learner is on the appropriate course in terms of meeting their award and
    organisational requirements. In order to do this you will probably have responsibility for the
    following:

    promoting a safe and supportive learning environment;


    promoting equality and diversity;
    adhering to key legislation, regulatory requirements and codes of practice;
    modelling professional behaviour at all times to inspire your learners;
    ensuring your own professional development;
    contributing to a team of professionals in order to improve the experience and
    achievement of your learners;
    designing or contributing to the design of the course curriculum
    negotiating appropriate learning targets f or the group and individuals
    as appropriate to their needs and aspirations as well as the course aims;
    planning learning activities based on the needs of your group and
    specific individual needs within the group;
    designing or amending learning resources that are varied, appropriate to
    the award aims, and intellectually challenging for your learners;
    keeping accurate records to contribute to your organisations quality
    improvement strategy. This will include keeping accurate records of recruitment,
    retention, achievement and progression of your group, as well as evaluation of
    how these can be improved;

    keeping accurate records of individual learners progress and future needs. This
    is often recorded in the form of an individual learning plan;
    providing learners with appropriate points of referral as required.
    In terms of this last point, during the course your primary aim is to enable each learner to
    achieve to the best of their ability through working in a safe and supportive environment. It
    is therefore your responsibility to know who your learners should contact if they need any
    additional support or specialist information, such as:

    finance;
    health;
    study skills;
    counselling.
