Job overview

Head of MFL (Spanish and/or French)

Required as soon as possible

Salary: MPS/UPS + TLR2a (£7,913)

Rawlins is seeking to appoint a dynamic Head of MFL to join our fantastic team and flourishing school. Our ideal candidate will have the ability to teach Spanish and/or French to KS3 and KS4 (A Level desirable but not essential). 

The MFL Department has a strong tradition of working collaboratively and regularly share good practice and expertise, which contributes to everyone’s personal development.  This combination of teamwork, an outward looking approach and a willingness to reflect internally upon best practice, ensures some excellent GCSE and A Level results.  All staff are encouraged to participate fully within the Department, contributing their ideas in order to ensure we continue to move forward. 

This is an excellent opportunity to join one of Leicestershire’s largest secondary schools, with over 1500 on roll including more than 300 in our A-level specific Sixth Form.  We are a highly inclusive school having our own Autism and a Moderate Learning Difficulties specialist unit on site alongside our school’s SEND support base. Pupils who attend these units are an integrated part of our school community. 

There is a strong sense of community in the school, the village of Quorn and the surrounding areas with a committed and aspirational parent support base.  Teamwork and making the most of every opportunity is a key feature of school life.  We aim to inspire our pupils to find their talents and their passions through a broad and balanced curriculum; to be curious about learning; to relish a challenge and to have both confidence and resilience. Applications are therefore welcomed from well-qualified and highly motivated individuals who are keen to work with remarkable young people providing an exceptional education for all. 

Our core purpose is summed up in our vision and values:

Developing Trust | Inspiring Hope | Building Success | Shaping the Future
