Teacher of Spanish

The Position –
This is an opportunity to join a thriving and successful Modern Languages department. Both French and Spanish are compulsory in Year 9 and students can choose to take one or both subjects in Years 10 and 11 and beyond. We are consistently achieving excellent results both at IGCSE and at A level, with steadily increasing numbers taking Spanish or French in Years 12 and 13.
Our Spanish lead teacher is returning to South America and we are seeking an enthusiastic replacement who can combine stimulating and varied teaching with a real passion for the Spanish language and the cultures behind it. You could have many years’ teaching experience or you could be an ECT with a solid background.
Candidates must be able to teach Spanish to A level as well as to GCSE/IGCSE. It will help if you can also teach French, but this is not essential. If you only teach Spanish we can find other teaching opportunities for you.
Our pupils are eager to learn and challenge themselves, and we are looking for someone who is passionate about working with pupils who want to be stimulated, rather than just taught. Our pedagogy is based on achieving high standards by responding professionally, sensitively and caringly to the needs of the pupils. Teachers encourage students and work in partnership with them to help them achieve their full potential.
You must be an energetic, engaging and enthusiastic teacher, able to be creative, and able to use different communication styles and techniques in order to maximise your effectiveness. You must be able to support each individual pupil’s growth and development, encouraging them and inspiring them to achieve and to be the best they can be.
Personal Profile
The ideal candidate should have the following:
Essential

Solid, high quality experience of teaching Spanish to IGCSE and ideally to A level as well
Outstanding communication skills, commanding respect from pupils, staff and parents
Excellent administrative and organisational abilities with accomplished ICT skills
Vision and drive for producing high class lessons and activities

An understanding of, and committed, to Peponi’s ethos as outlined above
Well-informed of current educational issues in boarding schools and secondary education
An obvious commitment for pupil welfare and safeguarding
Broad awareness of legalities and good practice within schools

Desirable

Ability to teach French as well
Experience of working in an independent senior school would be a distinct advantage but is not essential. We do however look for empathy with the expectations of fee-paying parents.
Dynamism, passion and energy, and a sense of fun as well as a serious side
