French Teacher (GCSE and A Level)

Hampton Court House is a fast-growing co-educational independent school situated in beautiful riverside parkland between Richmond and Hampton in South-West London.  The school has just over 300 pupils from Early Years through to Year 13.  

The school is proud to be one of the four schools in the UK to receive the Label FrancEducation, given to those who excel in bilingual Francophone education. 

Hampton Court House is a profoundly Francophile school which believes in fostering French not just as an academic subject but as a living language through which we teach other subjects. In Lower Years of the school, more than half of the lessons are taught in French by native French speakers, thus creating confident, fluent young speakers.

We are now looking to recruit a dynamic and passionate, full-time, French teacher. Experience in GCSE and A Level is required along with knowledge of FLE, and you will be expected to lead our students with their Year 7 DELF examinations through to our FLAM programme and then finally onto studying at French universities if they wish.  This post will require someone to have a high level of spoken and written French.   

The French department is a dynamic department that organises exciting events throughout the school year. Through the study of literature, French films and music, we are aiming to infuse our pupils with the love of learning a foreign language as well as developing their awareness and understanding of different cultures. We are looking forward to welcoming a new member of our team. 

Salary:  Commensurate with experience and qualifications

Pension:  NEST, enrolment after three months

Start Date:  September 2022
