Job Title: WorldWise Global Schools (WWGS) Education Officer – Connaught & Midlands
Location: Connaught & Midlands Region (Galway/flexible/Hybrid)
Contract type: Fixed term contract for 12 months.
Hours: Full time, 37.5 hours per week – Monday to Friday
Reports to: Programme Director, WorldWise Global Schools
Salary: €51,468
WorldWise Global Schools (WWGS) is the national programme for Global Citizenship Education (GCE) at post-primary level. GCE promotes understanding of the unequal world in which we live, exploring and challenging issues of inequality and injustice, and explores how to act for change. It equips both educators and learners with the knowledge, skills and values to do so.
WWGS provides a Global Passport framework for post-primary GCE, teacher training, grant funding, curriculum resources and guidance to support and encourage post-primary settings to engage in Global Citizenship Education.
WWGS is an Irish Aid funded programme implemented through a consortium comprising Self Help Africa, Concern Worldwide, the City of Dublin Education and Training Board (CDETB), the Ubuntu Network, the National Association of Principals & Deputy Principals (NAPD), the Association of Secondary Teachers in Ireland (ASTI) and the Teachers Union of Ireland (TUI).
Job Purpose:
The WWGS Education Officer (EO) based in Connaught will have responsibility for supporting WWGS schools in Connaught and a number of counties in the Midlands region to engage in and deepen their understanding of the role of Global Citizenship Education at post-primary. They will play a key role in supporting schools (Connaught & Midlands Region) to effectively utilise all available WWGS supports, and in monitoring the progress of schools and their GCE programme. The Education Officer will have responsibility for supporting schools to engage with the programme through the WWGS Global Passport, which is a framework for educators to understand Global Citizenship Education and how it fits both within the post-primary curriculum and beyond the curriculum..
The EO will provide Continuous Professional Development (CPD) opportunities for schools, through design and delivery, ensuring that schools are equipped to engage in quality GCE through various WWGS supports and interventions (one-to-one teacher support, tailored staff inputs and whole-staff training, both in-person and online) along with national/regional CPD.
The EO will assist in monitoring the progress of the WWGS programme towards meeting its overall strategic aim and objectives and contribute towards annual reporting requirements to Irish Aid. The capturing and sharing of data to track the level of GCE engagement at post-primary level is of central importance for this role.
The role requires using own initiative and requires excellent facilitation, communication, organisational and interpersonal skills to work with a wide range of schools and stakeholders, and to collaborate effectively with other members of the WWGS team.
