Maintain a productive and supportive classroom environment, ensuring students remain engaged and on-task.
Collaborate closely with heads of department and school leadership to provide effective support where needed.
Uphold school policies on behaviour and safeguarding while covering different classes.
Demonstrate flexibility, reliability, and a positive presence across the secondary team.

THE IDEAL CANDIDATE WILL HAVE:

A recognised teaching qualification (e.g., UK QTS, Spanish teaching credentials, or international equivalent).
A high level of spoken and written English (C1 minimum).
A flexible, proactive, and team-oriented mindset.
Experience teaching or working in a school environment (preferred, but not essential).
Confidence in managing a classroom and following provided lesson plans.
Excellent time management and organisational skills.
