The Norton Knatchbull School is looking for a full time Teacher of Spanish. This is a permanent position. We welcome applicants from either selective or wide ability settings, who are keen to work with high achieving and motivated students. We are looking for an excellent classroom practitioner who can inspire both colleagues and students and lead by example.

The Modern Foreign Languages department at Norton Knatchbull is small yet very well resourced. We approach the teaching of languages through well-planned lessons that interweave EPI activities with explicit grammar and vocabulary instruction. We operate on a collaborative planning policy and aim to maximise student potential while ensuring that teachers retain a good work-life balance. 

Students at NKS start their language learning journey in year 7 choosing between French or Spanish. They then carry on studying this language on a compulsory 5-year path all the way to GCSE as part of their Ebacc. Although still small, our A level cohorts have been growing in numbers in the last few years and it is our priority to increase the uptake. We follow the AQA specification for GCSE and Edexcel for A level.
