More than just a teaching position, this is an opportunity to become an integral part of a warm, welcoming, and highly supportive academic community at our thriving independent school located in the vibrant city of Southampton. We're seeking a dedicated and empathetic Teacher of French to join us in September 2025, someone who is not only passionate about their subject but also deeply invested in the intellectual development, linguistic fluency, and cultural appreciation of our students across Key Stage 3 and, importantly, Key Stage 4 and 5.

As a valued member of our team, commencing in September 2025, with a significant contribution to A-Level teaching, you will:

* Nurture Linguistic Confidence: Create a positive and inclusive learning environment where students feel supported, encouraged, and empowered to explore the French language and Francophone cultures across all key stages.

* Contribute to a Positive Ethos: Embrace our school's inclusive and collaborative culture, where every member of staff is valued, and their contributions to the intellectual and pastoral life of the school are recognised.

* Make a Real Difference: Have the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with students and guide them on their journey to becoming confident linguists and globally aware individuals, particularly as they progress through their A-Level studies.

* Enjoy a Supportive Work Environment: Benefit from a leadership team that prioritises staff well-being, provides excellent professional development opportunities in French pedagogy, and fosters a strong sense of community within our Southampton school and the MFL department, with specific support for A-Level teaching and extracurricular activities.

We're looking for a qualified French teacher who is not only an excellent practitioner but also a caring and supportive individual with a passion for fostering a deep understanding of language and culture, with the ability to inspire and challenge A-Level students. If you're seeking a school in Southampton where you can truly make a difference in the lives of young people through French, including significant Key Stage 5 involvement, and feel a strong sense of belonging within a thriving department, we'd be thrilled to hear from you for a September 2025 start.
