Teacher of MFL

The Governors of Holy Trinity School wish to appoint a dynamic, forward looking candidate to the temporary, full time post of Teacher of MFL. This is to cover for the maternity leave of a permanent member of staff until approximately July 2017. This is a great opportunity for a good teacher to join a successful department, and to develop their career in a good school.

The successful candidate will need to offer German to A-Level and French to Key Stage 4. We require a practitioner who has the enthusiasm, skill and ability to make a positive contribution to this motivated and successful team. The post is most suitable for an established teacher. The successful candidate will be committed to teaching across the 11-18 range. Applicants will need to evidence their commitment to excellent teaching and learning; to securing good or better outcomes for students; to developing student potential and skills from KS3 onwards, and to promoting the study of the subject at A Level.

We offer comprehensive induction and a good programme of CPL. We also operate an extensive coaching network to share good practice and we engage all teaching staff in the use of TEEP (Teacher Effectiveness Enhancement Programme) to enhance our teaching and learning in the classroom. We support, empower and challenge staff to make a real difference in raising standards and have many examples of staff who have fast-tracked their career as a result.

An information pack is available on request.

We are seeking a candidate who will commit to upholding our values and ethos as a faith school; however applicants do not need to be a practising Christian.

This is an excellent Church of England Voluntary Aided 11-18 mixed Comprehensive School where we pride ourselves in the pastoral care and development of all students. The post offers an unmissable opportunity for candidates wishing to make a positive impact on student and team progress, and who are able to provide innovative ideas to achieve this goal. We are located within easy access of the M23 and have several staff who car-share from the Brighton and Worthing areas. There are also good public transport links to the school.
