Teacher of Modern Foreign Language (Mat leave)
Trumpington Community College was built in 2015 on the south side of Cambridge, and the new school building provides a great environment for both working and learning. The school is growing and admitted 150 new pupils in Year 7 for the first time in September 2023. Following the Ofsted inspection in November 2023, Trumpington Community College is now a ‘Good’ school. Excitingly, two areas of the school were judged to be ‘Outstanding’ – Quality of Education, and Leadership and Management.
We are unashamedly ambitious for every child, no matter what their background, prior attainment or needs. We believe that ‘Knowledge Is Power’ – our most important purpose is to teach young people things they would not learn outside school which empower them. We also believe in ‘Education with Character’ – we want young people to look back on a schooling that has inspired and challenged them, given them wide opportunities and prepared them for the ups and downs of life.
We have high expectations and standards, and we teach through explicit/direct instruction (using the Rosenshine Principles) and utilising TLAC 3.0 techniques. In this way, we achieve strong GCSE outcomes, excellent student conduct and a feeling of community throughout the College.
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.
