Head of MFL

Swanlea is a large, vibrant and thriving school in the centre of London. With c.1050 students on roll, a further 210 studying at Swanlea as part of our collaborative Sixth Form, Cambridge Heath, staff at Swanlea have the opportunity to work alongside outstanding colleagues to deliver the curriculum and outstanding student outcomes across KS3-5.

In July 2013, Swanlea was graded as outstanding in all categories for the second time. However we are not complacent and aim to continue to deliver outstanding student progress. We are committed to the continuous professional learning of all staff and you will receive first class training and development. All middle leaders receive outstanding leadership and management training.

As you would expect, we’re looking for the best. A good honours degree and qualified teacher status are essential. Naturally you should be an outstanding teacher. You will be able to demonstrate unwavering commitment to raising progress and standards and like us, you believe that social disadvantage is no barrier to achievement and that every student can share in the joy of education and attainment. Most importantly, you will possess integrity, good humour and moral purpose.
