This is an exciting opportunity for a highly motivated teacher to deliver engaging and ambitious lessons that enable students to achieve their full potential and develop confidence in communication, cultural understanding and language learning.At priestnall School we believe Modern and Ancient Languages provide a way of transcending cultural barriers, allowing students to see their world from a different viewpoint. It prompts them to question what is 'normal', fosters their curiosity and deepens their understanding of the world as a rich and diverse place filled with different customs, perspectives, history, arts, literature and ways of communicating. It also affords students the chance to understand the codes which exist behind languages and how these might interplay, or be at odds with English. They will be able to recognise that rules and patterns exist throughout languages and that these may well be influenced by the impact of culture. Students can start to build a more powerful understanding of their own language through questioning how we put together words, sentences and text. One particularly powerful skill which is developed in language learning is the ability to speak and think simultaneously in a foreign language. Students are challenged to respond without preparation in discussions in class and this leads to them forming strong oracy skills.For further details on the role, including key skills and experience required, please see the Job Description and Person Specification attached below.To learn more about what the Trust offer, including our wide range of employee benefits and access to further professional learning, visit our Careers page.
