Employment opportunity for Kehillah Cheder Teacher & volunteers to help us develop our inclusive, diverse and anti-racist Cheder curriculum

Part time role teaching children aged 6-13 for 2 hours on Saturdays, twice per month during term time. Paid prep time and the option of running sessions at Festivals and High Holidays. Self employed up to £22 per hour dependent on qualifications and experience.

After receiving funding from Liberal Judaism to develop an inclusive, diverse, and anti-racist Cheder curriculum that uplifts the voices and histories of Jews who have traditionally been marginalised with British Jewry we are looking for volunteers to help develop this anti-racist curriculum.

In person services accessibility

As we return to more in person services, we are trying to make intentional choices about how we remain accessible in the ways Zoom has made possible, especially for those with disabilities and health conditions that make in person services prohibitive. If this includes you and you’d be interested in feeding into this process, please email Rabbi Leah.
