Do you have a passion for education, an interest in Food, Farming, and the Countryside, and have a desire to give back? We need you!
We are looking for dedicated individuals to join our education programme and help school children flourish. No lesson planning required, just focus entirely on what you do best, inspiring and connecting with children. Training will be given.
Whether you are a retired teacher, an ex-educator, or a professional with a flair for mentoring, your life experience and skills are incredibly valuable to us.
The Barleylands Education team facilitate a variety of themed educational days to link with the curriculum, and through fun, interactive activities and cookery workshops, give children a better understanding of where their food comes from, and the importance of a healthy balanced diet.
