Applications through Workday will not be accepted. AlphaPlus is working on behalf of the Department for Education to deliver the International Early Learning and Child Well-being Study (IELS) in schools across England. This will be delivered on a tablet one by one to 15 pre-selected pupils from each participating school. For each child, two study days with 60-minute sessions in each are planned. The study instruments will include different games/riddles reflecting the areas of interest: emergent literacy, emergent numeracy, self-regulation and empathy. We are currently recruiting a team of study administrators (SAs) to visit schools to administer the trial between
January and March 2025 . We are looking for teachers, social workers, retired teachers or individuals with experience working in a primary school or experience working with young children. Prior to the trial, there will be a full day in-person training session, which is scheduled to take place in the
week commencing 6th January 2025 (7th January in London OR 9th January in Manchester) . The date will be confirmed shortly. We anticipate that there will be a few weeks’ work for each selected SA, though this may vary depending on the locations and availability of the participating schools.
Availability to undertake this work for a minimum of one full working week is essential.
The rate of pay is £180 per day. All SAs will need to hold a current, valid DBS certificate. This can either be an existing certificate that is registered on the Update Service, or AlphaPlus will support a new DBS application.
