Teacher of MFL job summary
We currently
teach French to all Key Stage 3 students with an ambition to offer additional
languages such as Spanish. You will be joining at an exciting time as we look
to expand the number of students studying a language at Key Stage 4 with a
positive trend of progress and attainment.
The department
is well resourced with a range of learning materials and enjoys a dedicated set
of iPads for students to participate in online learning. Teachers are committed
to ensuring students enjoy language learning and are successful. The department
are excited to re-launch trips and educational visits, and make more cultural
connections.
The current Key
Stage 3 curriculum covers full range of content set out in the national curriculum
and includes a range of engaging topics, ensuring students are prepared for the
next stage whether that be study of the language at GCSE and beyond or in its
practical use in future careers and/or travel.
At Key Stage 4,
students follow the AQA specification. Both retrieval practice and
metacognition feature heavily across all schemes of work. In addition, the
department is outward thinking and collaborates with schools locally,
nationally and across the Trust to ensure students receive the best possible
language experience.
We have strong
links with our main Primary feeder schools and are actively working to improve
MFL teaching at Key Stage 2 to support transition and long-term attainment and
engagement in languages. Furthermore, the department supports students to
achieve GCSEs in heritage languages, with popular subjects including GCSE
Polish, Arabic and Urdu.
