What can I include in my teaching CV?
Here, we outline examples of the type of experience that you might want to include in your teacher CV which would be desirable for any teaching role.
Preparing and delivering lessons: Your prospective employer will want to know the ages and abilities you have prepared lessons for.
Preparing materials: Together with lesson plans, your employer will be interested in any experience you have with devising and writing new curriculum materials.
Marking work: You will need to be able to mark work and give appropriate feedback to pupils in the relevant age range.
Keeping records: You will need to be able to maintain records of your pupils’ progress and their development.
Keeping up to date: The ability to research new topics and keep up to date within your specialist subject areas is highly desirable.
Preparing materials: Together with lesson plans, your employer will be interested in any experience you have with devising and writing new curriculum materials.
Using varied media: The use of alternative teaching approaches such as podcasting is highly desirable and your prospective employer will want to know if you have experience in selecting and using a range of different learning resources and equipment, such as podcasts and interactive whiteboards.
Exam preparation: You should mention any specific experience you have preparing pupils for qualifications and external examinations.
Managing behaviour: You may have specific experience with managing pupil behaviour in the school environment, or perhaps in devising appropriate and effective measures in cases of misbehaviour.
Pastoral duties: Your prospective employer will want to know if you have had any experience in a pastoral role – form tutor for example – which required you to support pupils on an individual basis through academic or personal difficulties.
Communication skills: Strong communication skills are essential as these allow you to keep parents and carers informed over pupils’ progress, participate in departmental meetings, hold parents’ evenings and contribute to whole school training events. You may also have specific experience liaising with other professionals – for example, careers advisers, learning mentors, education welfare officers and educational psychologists.
Supervision: Another highly desirable skill is the ability to supervise others – and you should detail any experience you have in supervising and supporting the work of teaching assistants, trainee teachers and newly qualified teachers.
Out of hours: Schools like to see enthusiasm for organising and participating in extracurricular activities that strengthen and enrich the overall educational experience – for example, sporting events, outings and social activities.
Training: You may have taken part in various training activities including in-service training (INSET) as part of your CPD.
