Our Languages Department ….

Werneth School is looking for a forward-thinking, dynamic and inclusive teacher of languages (French with either German or Spanish) to join an MFL department committed to building on the considerable success of our results at GCSE over the last few years. 

This is an exciting time for the department. We have completely revamped our curriculum and assessment model to ensure that it is fit for 21st century learning, and as a result the number of pupils taking languages at GCSE has risen ten-fold over the last 12 months. 

We are a committed team who work collaboratively in our pursuit of excellence and our shared belief that language learning is a crucial component in developing our young people both academically and culturally for the modern world.

 If you think you could contribute to the growing success of our department and the wider school then we would love to hear from you! 

Further details and an application form are also available from the school website.
