The governors are seeking to appoint a skilled, enthusiastic and ambitious teacher of Spanish, as due to the success of the Modern Languages department, we are looking to expand our team with an additional member of staff.

More recently, we have seen an increase in uptake and currently over a third of students now study Spanish at GCSE level. The successful candidate will be expected to teach Spanish across the age and ability range.
