What skills and experience we're looking for
Following the successful introduction of Spanish to the MFL curriculum we are seeking to appoint a dynamic and forward-thinking Teacher of MFL (teaching French and Spanish ideally but we would consider either language specialism) with a passion, drive, love and ambition for language study providing an attractive and inspiring option for our students.
The successful candidate will join the school’s highly successful and enthusiastic Modern Foreign Languages department working and collaborating with an exceptionally dedicated and talented team of practitioners.
The department aims to produce future global citizens who are confident and capable linguists with the skills to communicate independently with others both by spoken and written means about a range of topics. With English being no longer the most spoken first language in the world, a foreign language is a great asset and can offer a wide range of career paths and it’s not just for use on holiday. We want our students to recognise and benefit from access to a range of languages.
What we are looking for:
- An excellent classroom practitioner
- Somebody who is well-organised, proactive and able to work effectively as part of a team
- Somebody who works well with staff and pupils alike
- Strong classroom management skills
- Knowledge of French at both KS3 and KS4
- Knowledge of Spanish at both KS3 and KS4
- Someone keen to make a difference to the lives of young people
- Someone looking to join a community that works to develop young people into successful citizens
- Someone ready to work with young people both in lessons and as a tutor
