Teacher of Spanish job summary
We are a positive and caring team who work collaboratively
together to plan stimulating and engaging lessons which aim to enthuse students
with a love of language and provide cultural capital to equip them as global
citizens. We wish to welcome someone into our team who shares those aspirations.
As a department we support each other, share resources and ideas, and strive to
model best practice through well designed lessons that put the student at the
centre. Therefore, to join us you need to be an inspirational teacher who has a
passion for promoting success and positivity in the classroom and who puts
relationships at the centre of their teaching.
As a Spanish teacher at CTS you will be responsible for planning
for a specific year group. You will be expected to promote high quality
teaching and learning and will need to be a reflective practitioner, embracing new
practices and ideas. In addition, you are required to be organised and adaptable.
We are currently planning a cross-curricular Art and Spanish trip to Barcelona
for July 2024, and there are many other opportunities to get involved with
planning trips or visits, so we welcome someone who is keen to develop this aspect
of their teaching role.
As a school,
we believe in languages for all and the vast majority of our KS4 students
continue with Spanish at GCSE. Learning a foreign language develops key
employability skills alongside the core British values of tolerance,
acceptance, and respect. The Modern Foreign Languages department
has worked hard to produce a curriculum which encompasses all these things; promotes curiosity and understanding of
the wider world; and which is tailored to students
of all abilities: we have an emphasis on inclusivity whilst working hard to
provide opportunities for our gifted linguists. We currently teach Spanish to
years 7 – 11 but there is an intention to establish a new A level Spanish
course within our thriving Sixth Form in the future.
Our students come from all walks of life, and we want our
staffing body to be reflective of the communities we work within. Brooke Weston
Trust does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, sex, sexual
orientation, gender identity or expression, nationality, culture, age,
disability, marital status or socio-economic backgrounds. We encourage and
welcome applications from minority groups and foster a work environment that’s
inclusive as well as diverse, where people can be themselves.

We place great emphasis on creating a supportive and
