Head of Languages – Spanish with French

We are looking for an individual who loves their subject, has a passion to develop this in others, and is committed to putting students first through outstanding leadership. 

With support from the Executive Director of Languages, you will be responsible for the Quality of Education in Languages, from Curriculum Intent through effective implementation, to the measuring of impact in lessons and through outcomes.

Our small, supportive team of dedicated subject specialists’ benefit from a new Languages Annexe, where we deliver a skills based curriculum based on a lexico-grammatical approach. 

In return, we can offer an environment where you will gain whole school experience and learn much on your journey to senior leadership and headship.  

Our school is unique, exciting and innovative – our philosophy is inclusive and founded on respect. If you feel this fits with your own value set and you have a track record of leading change, raising standards and you strive for excellence, then this might be just the role for you.  

We aim to recruit staff who:

• Love the processes of teaching and learning and are keen to continually develop their own skills; 
• Recognise that teaching can be a demanding job and react positively to those demands; 
• Will subscribe to the ethos of the Academy and be committed to get the very best from our students; 
• Take every opportunity, in and out of the classroom, to talk to students, model expected behaviours and build positive relationships;
• Remain at the forefront of pedagogy, educational research and debate. 
• See themselves as having the potential to become senior school leaders of the future.
