The Centre for Teaching Excellence is seeking to appoint experienced teachers to part-time secondment posts to take forward the Centre’s research priorities.

Secondment opportunities of up to 0.4FTE are available for teachers across Scotland to coordinate and lead Centre activities through a series of online and in-person opportunities in regionally based hubs, where teachers can come together to engage with, generate and disseminate research and enquiry with a focus on pedagogy and classroom practice.

These teacher-researcher groups will enable teachers to collaborate with university-based and school-based colleagues sharing similar interests, supporting both research design and the sharing of research outcomes through, for example, research-practice partnerships and communities of enquiry.

The secondments will be effective from January 2026 - March 2026.

Applications close on 5 November.
