Job overview

Trainee Teachers of Modern Languages 

From 28 August 2018

St Helen and St Katharine is leading the new partnership hub in Oxfordshire for the National Modern Languages School Centred Initial Teacher Training (SCITT). This one-year course is a combination of academic training and placement in independent and maintained schools in Abingdon, which offers qualified teaching status (QTS) and a post-graduate certificate in education (PGCE).

We are looking for candidates who have the potential to be outstanding teachers with a passion for modern languages. Candidates must be able to demonstrate extensive subject knowledge in their chosen language or be a native level speaker.

In the first year, the Oxfordshire Hub will support French and Spanish teaching only, however the National Modern Languages SCITT does offer other languages in other hubs. Please see the NML SCITT website for details www.nationalmodernlanguages.com. A good honours degree or a recognised equivalent qualification with a high level of fluency in French and/or Spanish is required.

 Founded on Christian values, we enable every girl to discover and develop her own strengths. St Helen & St Katharine is a school where success is celebrated but not revered and our goal is to ensure that every girl achieves success as she defines it, so that she can believe in herself, her talents and her abilities. 

We are one of the leading girls’ schools in the country and are justifiably proud of a tradition of high aspiration and academic achievement (our students achieved record breaking GCSE results with 77% A* this year). But we take just as much pleasure in the warmth of the atmosphere here and in our dynamic range of extra-curricular activities. From Minecraft to Mandarin, Silversmithing to Sailing, Board Games to Big Band and much more besides, our girls are given the space and opportunity to make their own choices and find their niche.   

A welcoming 22 acre campus in Abingdon provides exceptional facilities that include a brand new state-of-the-art Sports Centre; Performing Arts Centre; extended Sixth Form Centre; Science Centre with 12 new laboratories, break out spaces and a 200sqm science themed glass atrium and a 3D Design Centre. 

This is a friendly and happy place in which lasting relationships are built on kindness and respect. Our ambitions for our students are based upon them developing confidence and resilience and an open-minded and creative approach to learning and to life.
