We are looking to appoint an inspirational, pioneering and entrepreneurial Teacher of Spanish who will be part of an innovative and forward-thinking team. We offer French and Spanish to students from KS3 to KS5 and the successful person will be able to demonstrate a commitment to maintaining the high standards set within the school and have the ability to bring out the best in every student.
