Summerhill is a truly great place to be! It is a vibrant, successful 11-16 community school with excellent facilities, highly professional staff and students who are simply a joy to teach and have a thirst to learn.
Our results are the best in the Dudley Borough; however, we are so much more than that. The opportunity for students to develop their character, profile and cultural capital is evident in everything that we do. School is founded via the ethos of care and our House system of four Houses, one family. The post-holder will have the opportunity to work in a dynamic, driven team who deliver an outstanding provision through engaging lessons and exciting enrichment opportunities.
Due to a retirement following a long, happy and successful career at Summerhill, we are looking to appoint an outstanding Teacher of MFL to work in our Languages Department to deliver an inspirational language provision to our students. The ability to teach French or Spanish to GCSE level is required, while the ability to teach the other language to at least KS3 would be an asset. Candidates would also need to be willing to deliver lessons to our local primary schools.
This post is open to ECTs and more experienced members of staff.
You need to be determined to drive up standards, have a positive approach and be committed to making a difference. In return you will get to work in an innovative and supportive school. We have an inclusive culture which attracts, welcomes, celebrates, retains and develops fantastic people. We have high expectations for all students and staff and aim to be brilliant in all we do. We are looking for staff who share this vision!
