1 FTE
MPS/UPS (Plus TLR2)
Required from 1/9/25
The Governors of this exceptional Grammar School wish to appoint a well-qualified and enthusiastic
Teacher of German, with the opportunity for a TLR to lead Key Stage 5 within the Languages Faculty for
a suitably experienced candidate. This is a full-time, permanent position starting in September 2025.
We are seeking a German specialist who can teach the subject to A Level (GCE). The ability to teach
Spanish would be highly desirable but not essential. A good degree in German or a closely related
subject is required, and candidates must have a strong knowledge of teaching Modern Foreign
Languages, with a good understanding of examination requirements. A proven track record of motivating learners and raising achievement is essential.
For candidates appointed with a TLR, the successful candidate will work alongside the Head of
Languages, Key Stage 3 Leader, and Key Stage 4 Leader to oversee the continued development of the
Languages Faculty, which includes German, French, and Spanish. This is an excellent opportunity for a
skilled and passionate teacher to further their leadership experience and contribute to an ambitious and dynamic team.
This post would suit a recently qualified teacher, for whom extensive support and encouragement will
be given, or a more experienced practitioner ready to take on leadership responsibilities.
Further information and an application form are available to download from the Schools website
(www.wkgs.org) or by contacting the School on 0151 632 3449. A completed application form and a
letter addressing the content of the person specification (no more than two sides of A4) should be
submitted to office@wkgs.net for the attention of Mr S. Clarke, Headteacher. If you have any questions regarding the post, please contact the school for further information.
