What skills and experience we're looking for
Starting September 2025
At SPW we provide an environment where you can deliver a transformational education. To do this we have crafted an approach to teaching and learning in which:
Staff use whole class feedback models instead of written marking combined with just two data drops a year
We run a centralised behaviour system
Teaching staff enjoy the highest proportion of timetabled planning and preparation time in the Borough.
Beyond this, collaboration underpins a staff development model in which every teacher benefits from fortnightly coaching, in addition to timetabled subject specific training during the school day.
We also appreciate that delivering excellence requires flexibility. We have adapted to include online parents evening meetings and having fortnightly PPA time from home where timetabling allows.
This is an exciting career opportunity for a colleague who is passionate about the entitlement of young people to broaden their horizons through acquiring another language. You must be able to teach Spanish and French, with one language to KS4. A Level is also desirable where we have consistent A Level cohorts year on year. Working within a vibrant and highly successful Faculty of Languages, you will be an outstanding classroom teacher with a passionate commitment to the progress of all students in our fully comprehensive and heavily oversubscribed school.
The successful candidate will have an unwavering belief in the potential of every student and support them in improving their life chances. They will do what it takes to ensure that students achieve their best, and will inspire curiosity and enthusiasm for the subject, which motivates students. The successful candidate will teach French to KS4 and Spanish to KS3 or KS4. A Level experience desirable but not essential.
This post would be suitable for a teacher with little or more experience; the school has a comprehensive induction programme and numerous CPD opportunities. We welcome applications from ECT’s.
If you would like to play your part in delivering outstanding provision, whilst receiving the very best support to develop your career, then we would very much like to hear from you.
St Paul’s Way Trust School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Successful candidates will be required to undergo an enhanced DBS Check.
