Teacher of Modern Foreign Languages (Spanish specialism) ECT’s welcomed.
Full Time (part time considered)
Required from September 2026
We are a busy, vibrant, and happy school – academically successful but driven to achieve much more. We believe that education must maintain a balance between intellect and character. An outstanding education is not either/or. It is both. We believe that qualifications are what students get; they do not define who they are and will play only a part in shaping the people they become. Our academic curriculum therefore is only a part of what we do.
At the Folkestone School for Girls, students do not complete an excessive number of qualifications. This allows them not only time to focus efforts on achieving the absolute best grades within these, but also time to participate in our huge array of co-curricular activities in school and/or pursue interests & hobbies out of school. There is time to spend with friends and family and time, too, to just be a child. A justifiable balance between intellect character.
We seek to appoint an excellent classroom teacher, to join our highly successful and motivated team. We are looking for a dynamic, passionate individual who will help us in our ambition to become the best school in the world; nothing less!
You will need great people skills, reserves of energy and enthusiasm and a capacity for sustained hard work. Perhaps most importantly, you will be positive, optimistic, kind and have a can-do attitude to anything that will benefit FSG Students.
You must be passionate about teaching languages, with a specialism in Spanish and have the capability to teach students at both GCSE and Advanced Level. You must be keen to engage, stretch and challenge students of all ages and abilities in this 11-18 selective grammar school and be prepared to contribute to the wider community. ECT’s are welcomed.
You’ll also be able to get involved with our unique personal development and character education programme, The FSGBacc, which encompasses a wide range of activities – from our very own escape room and radio station, through to our extensive Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme or our Combined Cadet Force Contingent! Sport, Music, Debate, Drama, Dance, Adventure – there really is something for everyone! Find out more details here:
You can find out all about our school and about our unique school vision and ethos via our school website.
