Job overview

Tes is supporting the appointment of a Head of MFL with a specialism in Spanish and French to lead, manage and develop this department, maximising student achievement and progress. At this school, the study of Modern Foreign Languages provides young people with the knowledge and skills to express their ideas and thoughts in another language. As they broaden the limits of their world, students understand and respond in speech and writing. They will also be able to understand a variety of information as they develop listening and reading skills. 

This is a small but cohesive department that is well resourced and committed to helping students with a love for languages. At KS3 and KS4, they offer both Spanish and French and are committed to increasing the number of students who opt to take a language for GCSE. The school try to enhance students' experiences in languages by celebrating languages throughout the year and also an annual optional Languages and Arts trip to Barcelona. 

This is a 11-16 academy based in Witham, Essex. Situated between the cities of Chelmsford and Colchester, the academy has 900 students on roll and benefits from a purpose-built building that was constructed in 2011. There are excellent transport links to London which enables staff and young people to take full advantage of the wealth of opportunities that London provides. Free car parking facilities are available on site.

The school welcome applications from middle leaders with a strong track record leading a department, as well as those who have other leadership experience or experienced teachers ready for their next challenge.

There are excellent development and career progression opportunities available. A Recruitment and Retention Allowance will be available for an exceptional candidate.
