1 Share of the further education teacher role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the secondary school teacher profile. Required skills count in full, supplementary skills at 0.35. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. 2 Combines what is missing with how specialised it is, so a gap of general skills scores easier than the same number of narrow ones.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 28 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A further education teacher role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a secondary school teacher background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held use pedagogic strategies for creativity communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held teach digital literacy communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held oversee extra-curricular activities management skills
  • already held assign homework management skills
  • already held escort students on a field trip assisting and caring
  • already held manage student relationships communication, collaboration and creativity

All 28 carried skills, including the 17 the further education teacher role treats as required.

Note

How this record was compiled

Both occupations are taken from ESCO, which lists the skills and knowledge each occupation is expected to have and marks every one required or optional. Nothing here is a prediction about hiring, and nothing here knows that a particular employer wants a particular certificate. Treat Table 3 as a starting point for your own research rather than a syllabus. The full method states what these figures can and cannot tell you.
