Teacher of Spanish

Kenton School is at the cutting edge of modern education. With approximately 1,900 students, we are one of the largest schools in the North East, however despite our size, we pride ourselves on retaining a family atmosphere and in ensuring that we cater for the needs of all our students, regardless of their special gifts or talents.  

A vacancy has arisen for a talented and inspiring Spanish specialist to join our team teaching Key Stage 3 and 4, with the opportunity to teach Key Stage 5. This post is open to both newly qualified teachers and experienced teachers looking for an exciting new challenge.

If you are the person we are looking for, you will possess: 

• a proven track record of effective training or teaching practice underpinned by a passion for your subject; 
• broad subject knowledge and the ability to apply a range of teaching and learning strategies; 
• excellent analytical skills, with the ability to use data and assessment for learning effectively to inform practice; 
• the ability to work effectively with all students, engaging them through exciting yet challenging lessons and embedding a culture of positive behaviour for learning.   

Most importantly, you will be committed to our school ethos of ‘all different, all equal,’ instilling high expectations in all our students to enable them to achieve their potential regardless of the barriers they face.   

In return Kenton School offers fantastic opportunities to committed and enthusiastic teachers and offers tremendous developmental possibilities due to its success, size, facilities and a forward thinking management and staff working together to offer the best available chances for our pupils.
