Job description
We wish to appoint a dynamic and innovative teacher to lead the department within a popular and oversubscribed multi-ethnic school firmly committed to language learning. French and Spanish are taught throughout Key Stage 3–5, and German is offered as an additional language. Most students study a foreign language up to GCSE. All languages are successful at GCSE and popular A level subjects. We employ language assistants and have dedicated classrooms and a computer suite.
To be successful, you will be an outstanding language teacher and be able to teach two languages. You will have a proven track record of providing high-quality teaching and learning to pupils across all Key Stages and a deep understanding of progression in language learning at all levels and for all abilities.
You will be able to lead by example, inspire both staff and students, have excellent interpersonal skills, and thrive working in a large, busy and successful department.
Graveney is an extremely popular and successful 11–18 School situated in Tooting, SW17 on a pleasant site with excellent facilities. We have a commitment to providing the best opportunities to all students and to developing the professional skills and career opportunities of staff.
