What skills and experience we're looking for

We are seeking to appoint a dynamic and inspirational Teacher of French to join our team of highly committed linguists. Candidates must have the ability to teach French at KS3, KS4, and A-Level.

MFL is taught as a core subject at KS3, and is currently optional at KS4. Students who choose a language do well at Wollaston.

We currently offer both French and German at A-level and students achieve well in these subjects.
