We are recruiting for a Teacher of Modern Foreign Languages (Mandarin) to join our successful and thriving MFL department here at Cleeve School from September 2025. Languages are highly valued at Cleeve, and there is a keen interest from the Executive Head and Governing body to continue to increase student uptake of the EBacc and develop international links and events across the curriculum. Outcomes in MFL have significantly improved over the years, and the department goes from strength to strength! The department has an extremely well-resourced subject area, with attractive teaching rooms, an excellent range of teaching resources, and a great network with local schools. This role has the potential opportunity to teach Mandarin at KS5, with our Sixth Form Centre of Excellence recently being recognized as ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted.
At Cleeve School, students of Mandarin are part of the nationally-recognised Mandarin Excellence Programme. We invest significantly into the study of Mandarin, allowing students and teachers access to a wide variety of resources, such as electronic resources like GoChinese and cultural enrichment activities and days. Students are timetabled for up to 8 hours of Mandarin a fortnight, promoting excellent progress in the language. Numbers in Year 7 MEP classes rose 50% in September 2023, with numbers sustained for September 2024, making it a truly exciting time to join the languages department at Cleeve School. Our Ofsted inspection has recognized the energy and ambition of our school.
The school is an equal opportunities employer and is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. Therefore, we expect all staff and volunteers to share this same commitment. We particularly welcome applications from underrepresented groups including ethnicity, gender, transgender, age, disability, sexual orientation, or religion. The successful candidate will be subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check.
