Job overview
Modern Foreign Languages is an integral part of the curriculum at Moor End Academy. The Curriculum Leader post is vital to the department’s contribution to the English Baccalaureate entitlement we have for our students. Current students begin AQA GCSE in either French or German in Year 9, and there has been increased curriculum time allocated to MFL to ensure success; for example, our Year 9 students have 4 periods of dedicated time per week in order to fully prepare them for GCSE. This is then continued with three lessons per week in Years 10 and 11.
As Curriculum Leader, you will have the flexibility to develop all aspects of the faculty. Although at present French and German are the primary languages offered, there is potential and support from Senior Leaders to develop and innovate the curriculum to incorporate new languages into the MFL curriculum. The department has a strong team ethic, and deliver consistently high quality lessons on a daily basis. The MFL staff are forward thinking and versatile in their approach. The subject is popular, and this post represents a real opportunity to build on extremely solid foundations. There is a unique opportunity to develop and innovate our language provision, building a team that already includes staff that are wholeheartedly committed, enthusiastic and dedicated to developing their own practice to achieve the common goals of the Faculty and the Academy

Moor End is a converter Academy that opened on 17th August 2011. We converted as an outstanding school. Prior to this we were a community school. Moor End is a National Support school. We play a leading role in the training and professional development of teachers and contribute towards the raising of standards across the school system through school to school support.
We are an award winning Academy and have continued to be recognised by Ofsted as ‘outstanding’. We are a truly inclusive school that welcomes students of all abilities. Our aim is to create a safe, stimulating, ambitious and caring environment to enable our students to thrive and achieve excellence; to make certain our future generation have the self-confidence to use their talents and skills to become the leaders of tomorrow.
Our vision is to maximise every child’s potential to ensure we can confidently say,” we gave every student his or her GCSE passport to success.” We passionately believe, as educators, we have the power and responsibility to inspire our students to be the best they can be to enable our learners to pursue their dreams and become the leaders of tomorrow.
Our motivation is to ensure that positive relationships are at the core of what we do every day, along with high quality teaching and pastoral care overseen by strong leadership. What we believe will follow is a strong ethos, and students with high expectations who demonstrate exceptional behaviour and want to be part of our school community.
We insist on high standards of behaviour, appearance, work ethic and respect for all to enable our staff to teach our students well so they learn to the best of their ability and leave the Academy with a first-class education.
