Day-to-day operating brief
What University Lecturer (Physiotherapy course) work looks like in practice
A physiotherapy lecturer teaches professional theory and skills, assesses students, supports placements and contributes to curriculum and research. Terms should cover teaching load, registration where required, scholarly time, intellectual property, placement travel and fair assessment. Assessment security is a distinct academic responsibility. Questions, simulated cases, marking guides and student results require controlled access, versioning and an authorised process for reasonable adjustments. Laboratory teaching also needs safe timetabling of plinths, handling practice and anatomical resources. External examiners, accreditation evidence and placement capacity create separate annual deadlines.
