What skills and experience we're looking for
Teacher of MFL (Spanish)Job description
Serlby Park Academy are looking to appoint a Teacher of MFL (Spanish) to join our academy in as soon as possible on a full time, permanent basis.
OUR VISION
At Delta Academies Trust we understand the importance of learning a modern foreign language and we believe that every single one of our pupils should have that opportunity. We have invested significant time,expertise, and money in the creation of an outstanding curriculum offer which has increased pupil engagement, and as a result the number of pupils studying MFL in our 17 secondary academies has risen dramatically.
OUR CURRICULUM
We have created carefully sequenced five-year curriculum plans for both French and Spanish using the national curriculum and the key recommendations of the 2016 MFL Pedagogy Review, and we regularly update them. Each one is fully resourced, with detailed lessons prepared for you to adapt to the needs of your classes. We use an online coursebook to underpin our teaching, along with our trust knowledge organisers. Every unit of work includes a cultural topic to help instil a love of languages as well as promote a desire to get to know more about people from those countries. We subscribe to an on-line learning platform to support the learning of vocabulary. Perhaps our biggest and most impressive investment is in our team of modern language assistants. We currently have 17 native speakers in our academies and our pupils love working with them!

HOW WILL WE SUPPORT YOU?
Our Senior MFL director is a specialist in both French and Spanish and leads a team of two MFL directors and a lead teacher.

We pride ourselves on recognising and developing talent and are passionate about sharing our love of teaching languages.

Serlby Park Academy provides an exciting opportunity to develop knowledge and understanding across both the primary and secondary phases. While our staff specialise in teaching in one phase, the opportunity to work together cross phase to develop and deliver an innovative and cohesive education from when they join the academy aged 3, is something we are passionate about. We feel strongly that our setting can provide our students with the best outcomes, opportunities and experiences. We serve the villages of Harworth and Bircotes as well as some of the surrounding villages and our academy has a diverse catchment and strong community feel. We are very proud of the achievements of our students at all phases. Last year, Progress outcomes were well above average with Y6 pupils attaining 5.4 in Reading, 2 in Writing and 5 in Maths and our Y11 Progress 8 score was 0.27. This once again placed us in the top 3 academies in Bassetlaw based on pupil progress.
