What skills and experience we're looking for
Are you a well-qualified and enthusiastic French teacher?
Do you have the commitment and positivity to contribute to Broadway’s values-driven ethos and the drive to promote high expectations for students and staff?
Broadway Academy Trust has been rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted for 14 years and constantly strives for excellence.
The Department
Broadway Academy is a thriving multi-cultural community. We believe that learning a language opens doors to new cultures and countries, as well as teaching self-awareness, humility, and respect.
At the Academy, the Modern Foreign Languages department teaches French. Facilities include well-equipped classrooms, and a dedicated space for one-to-one and small-group tuition. All students are taught French from year 7 to year 9, developing the basic skills of language learning. In year 9, pupils choose whether to continue with French through to GCSE. We have been successful in retaining high numbers of students in Year 10 and Year 11. Our results have been excellent, with many students exceeding their national targets. We provide many opportunities for students to experience languages and life beyond the curriculum, such as links with local universities and our partner school, film days, national competitions, and a residential trip to France.
The Role
We are looking for a French specialist who will: ensure that MFL quality of education and outcomes are excellent; take a proactive role in the development of French across the Academy; promote MFL uptake at KS4; and be committed to providing a range of extra-curricular opportunities for our students. You will also have a commitment to effective behaviour management within a restorative practice framework. You should be inspired by Broadway’s existing co-curricular and extra-curricular offer through its outdoor education centre in Worcestershire and want to bring your creativity to expand this for the department and the benefit of our students.
What the school offers its staff
Why you should join us
You will get a real opportunity to make a difference within a school which encourages students and staff to be aspirational. We have an innovative partnership with a well-regarded school in the independent sector. Staff development is a priority for all, and we provide structured CPD. High achieving teachers have access to an accelerated leadership programme linked to NPQs.
Staff wellbeing is a priority, and the Trust provides an employee assistance programme. All teaching staff receive a work laptop. If you are keen to work in a successful and growing academy trust which encourages staff to aim high in their own careers, this could be a great opportunity for you.
