Job Description:

Wye School is part of United Learning, a large, and growing, group of schools aiming to offer a life-changing education to children and young people across England. United Learning is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All positions are subject to an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring check from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) and shortlisted candidates will be subject to an online check. We always appoint on merit, and we are open to discussing flexible working options.

Wye School is a co-educational, non-selective secondary school, opening in 2013. We are a relatively small school, with 600 students, and a warm and friendly atmosphere. The school has built on United Learning’s successful track record nationally of providing an excellent secondary education for local children and is oversubscribed and has excellent exam outcomes.

The successful candidate will join the school in October 2026/January 2027 and will be part of a small Modern Foreign Languages department of two staff that deliver Spanish and French at KS3 and KS4. The role is fixed term until August 2027. The candidate will teach French to KS4 and Spanish to KS3. The role is 30 hours per week working Tuesday to Friday. As a small school, we work as part of a small, close knit team, but, being part of United Learning offers excellent professional development and future career prospects. We work alongside Chilmington Green School, the other local United Learning secondary school.

We welcome applications from both ECTs and experienced practitioners.

The successful candidate will be:

  • An inspirational Teacher of Modern Foreign Languages who can successfully motivate and inspire students.
  • Committed to ensuring that all pupils make excellent progress.
  • Driven and determined to ensure that Wye School has a successful MFL department with high expectations for every student.
  • Dedicated to their own professional development.

We can offer:

  • Excellent ongoing CPD and career development opportunities.
  • The opportunity to contribute to the wider school.
  • Collaboration with colleagues from across the United Learning trust and across our local cluster of schools, Wye School, Chilmington Green School and Ashford School.
  • Potential for progression into middle and senior leadership opportunities.
  • Working across a large and successful multi-academy trust with a shared curriculum, resources and subject specific support- this provides far more support for teachers around planning and assessment than the norm and is a great benefit of working for United Learning.

We actively welcome visits and would be delighted to show you the school.
