We are looking for an excellent Teacher of Spanish to join our dynamic and passionate department. The successful candidate should be confident to teach Spanish at Key Stages 3 and 4. The ability to teach at A level would be desirable. Raising the bar for all students regardless of their ability is high on the agenda in Spanish.

Students are extremely motivated and are eager to achieve thanks to a vibrant and enthusiastic group of practitioners, who all display a huge passion for languages through their novel approaches to Teaching and Learning. An optimum level of the target language is also used across all lessons and there is a strong feedback policy in place which is not only improving attainment of students but is also mindful of staff workload.

We are looking for an individual to drive up standards, with a positive approach who will have the highest expectations of what students can achieve. In return, you will have the opportunity to work in an innovative and highly supportive Academy.
