The school wishes to appoint a dedicated, well-qualified Teacher of Japanese (Maternity Cover) to develop and deliver an outstanding learning experience for our students. They will have a focus on student-centred learning with a strong level of subject knowledge to engage, inspire and extend the students. While this is initially a maternity cover post, there is the possibility of this transitioning into a full-time role for the right candidate.
Japanese is a popular subject at King’s and it is taught at Key Stage 3 (beginner courses from Year 7) and the IGCSE course is taught at Key Stage 4 with some students pursuing A Level Japanese in the sixth form. We seek to appoint a teacher who will demonstrate substantial subject expertise and the ability to nurture every pupil by fostering a culture of high expectations and love of learning. The successful candidate will be able to employ adaptive teaching strategies, including the use of digital tools and traditional methods, to support and stretch all learners. Knowledge of the A-Level curriculum and Key Stage 5 teaching experience would be an advantage.
Teachers at King’s are committed to academic excellence and to developing and improving their professional practice. They also play an active role in the co-curricular, extra-curricular and pastoral aspects of the school life. This is an exciting opportunity for candidates who value collaboration and offer a nurturing forward-thinking approach to education.
Since 2020 we have grown rapidly and this is an exciting opportunity for a candidate who will inspire, set the highest of standards and build systems to ensure that as we continue to grow we set the scene for future excellence.
This position will also play an active role in the co-curricular and pastoral aspects of the school with the opportunity of being a form tutor for the right candidate.
If you value colleagues who will support you, you are excited by a new school environment in which we all work hard for each other, and if you have a nurturing approach to education we would welcome your application for a position with us.
