LPGS seeks to appoint an enthusiastic Teacher of Spanish. LPGS is an exciting place to work; a school in which students are motivated to achieve their best and work hard with their teachers to make exceptional progress. 80% of students take an MFL subject at GCSE with outstanding results. The MFL faculty is supportive, progressive and fun. We want our students to leave LPGS empowered to shape their own lives, and those of others, as the leaders of tomorrow.

LPGS is an inclusive and academically successful school in South East London with results in terms of progress and attainment that put it in the top 5% of schools nationally. Public transport links are good and staff travel from across London and the South Coast. In October 2021, Ofsted found that if they undertook a Section 5 inspection they would judge us to be outstanding. In addition to this, 100% of staff asked told Ofsted that they would recommend the school.

The successful candidate will be expected to teach Spanish at Key Stages 3-5. The ability to teach a second language is an advantage. This position is suitable for either experienced teachers or new entrants to the profession. However, there may be additional opportunity/responsibility for more experienced candidates. For an inexperienced teacher of Spanish, there is extensive support available.

LPGS is a calm, friendly and collaborative environment which offers strong staff support. Our CPD programme gives all teachers time to pursue their own priorities. This results in a two week October half term. Please see application details on our website www.lpgs.bromley.sch.uk. Completed application forms should be emailed to Helen Partridge, hpa@lpgs.bromley.sch.uk. If you would like to visit the school and establish whether we are right for you, you are warmly invited to do so.

Please note that whilst you are also welcome to submit a CV, shortlisting will be based solely on our application form and your covering letter. All applicants must fully complete the LPGS Application Form.
