Are you an ambitious MFL Teacher ready to take the next step in your career?
Do you have a passion for languages and the confidence to lead and inspire a team?
Quokka Education is delighted to be supporting a rapidly improving secondary school in the Gosport area, rated 'Good' in all areas, in their search for a Head of Modern Foreign Languages to cover a one-year maternity post from January 2026.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced language teacher or an aspiring middle leader who's ready to take on a new challenge in a supportive, forward-thinking environment.
As Head of MFL, you'll play a key role in shaping the future of the school's modern languages provision. You'll lead a small but committed team, ensuring students receive high-quality teaching that inspires curiosity, cultural awareness, and confidence in communication.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Leading and delivering engaging MFL lessons across KS3 and KS4 (with the ability to teach A-Level desirable but not essential)
- Supporting the department with curriculum planning, assessment, and teaching strategies
- Driving continued departmental improvement and sharing best practice across the school
- Working closely with senior leadership to maintain high standards of teaching and learning
- Inspiring colleagues and students through your passion for languages and commitment to excellence
This is a superb opportunity for someone who thrives on collaboration, enjoys taking initiative, and wants to make a meaningful contribution to a department on an exciting upward journey.
This Gosport secondary school has made remarkable progress in recent years and continues to go from strength to strength under strong, supportive leadership. The successful candidate will benefit from:
- A collaborative and forward-thinking environment where your ideas are valued
- Excellent leadership and professional development opportunities
- The chance to gain valuable experience in departmental management and strategy
- A school culture that values well-being, creativity, and ambition for both staff and students
- Modern facilities and a growing community that celebrates academic and personal success
Teachers at this school describe it as a place where leaders listen, teamwork thrives, and progress is celebrated. It's an ideal setting for someone ready to develop their leadership skills in a positive, growth-oriented environment.
To be successful in this role, you will need:
- Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)
- Experience teaching French to GCSE (A-Level desirable)
- The ability to teach Spanish and/or German (desirable but not essential)
- A genuine passion for languages, culture, and student success
- Strong leadership, communication, and organisational skills
Whether you're already an experienced Head of Department or a talented teacher looking to step up, this is an outstanding opportunity to lead a thriving MFL team and make a real impact.
