Teacher of MFL

Overview

We are seeking an enthusiastic and dedicated Teacher of French & Spanish to join our vibrant and supportive school community for a one year maternity cover. This is an exciting opportunity for a passionate educator who inspires curiosity, confidence, and a love of languages, and who is committed to helping students develop strong communication skills and cultural understanding. Whether you are an experienced teacher or an early career professional, you will be valued for your creativity, high expectations, and ability to motivate learners of all abilities.

If you want to work in a strong community, one based upon mutual respect, a school where everyone is valued and supported to be the best they can be (both students and staff) then this is the school for you. Please copy to your browser to get a flavour of St Wilfrid’s:  As you will see, we have great facilities, great staff and above all, great students!

This is a school that wants to be the very best it can be. Do you want to be part of that? This post would be ideal for an Early Career Teacher (ECT), and for anyone who wants to join a school where there may be future opportunities for progression. We really do value our teachers and actively support their professional development.

For ECTs, we offer an in-depth programme of support and training based on the Early Careers Framework. You do not need to be Catholic to work here, indeed many of our staff are not, but a willingness to embrace the ethos of our school is expected.

The strength of community here at St Wilfrid’s is a strong one based upon mutual respect. Our staff work incredibly hard and are prepared to go the extra mile. Our students are amazing and they contribute enormously to making the school such a welcoming and productive place. Our most recent Catholic School Inspection (2024) and our Ofsted Report (2023) certainly reinforce this aspect of school life.

All potential applicants are invited and encouraged to arrange a visit – we firmly believe you won’t be disappointed!

St Wilfrid's Catholic School reserves the right to review applications, interview and appoint before the close date so please make sure your applications are sent as soon as possible.
