Hayes students are enthusiastic and confident communicators in a range of languages. Our students have positive attitudes towards language learning and benefit from excellent teaching from highly skilled, committed and experienced teachers. Languages are a priority within our school.

We are looking to recruit a skilled and experienced teacher to lead our team of Spanish teachers and work collaboratively within an innovative department in our outstanding school.

The post is suitable for someone with a passion for Spanish, experience of designing a language curriculum and with the ability to inspire students and lead our team of dedicated teachers.

Modern Foreign Languages and Spanish, in particular, are a popular subject at both Key Stage 4 and 5 with a large number of students selecting languages as an option. Indeed, around 75% of our students take the EBACC and a significant number of students go on to pursue careers and higher education courses in this area.

Our school benefits from and actively contributes to a range of partnerships and we are the lead school for the Bromley Schools’ Collegiate, a School Centred Initial Teacher Training (SCITT) provider for primary and secondary teacher training.

Hayes School is a high achieving, oversubscribed school, which provides excellent education for its students as well as exciting opportunities for professional and career development for staff. The school benefits from its proximity to central London and excellent transport links whilst bordering the beautiful Kent countryside.

We are committed to equality of opportunity for all our staff. We particularly welcome applicants from ethnic minority backgrounds as they are currently under-represented on our staff body. We recognise the vital contribution that members of a diverse team make to our students’ learning. The range of cultural experiences, differing viewpoints and role models this brings is essential in our Trust and we recognise the gap that would be left in our offering without these.

The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Therefore, the successful applicant will be subject to Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check
