Walsall, United Kingdom Queen Mary's High School Full time

Link to Apply – Teacher of French and Spanish (Maternity Cover)


Queen Mary’s High School is an 11 to 18 selective girls’ grammar school with approximately 940 students. There are a small number of male students in the sixth form.

Since the school’s successful bid for funding from the Selective Schools Expansion Fund (SSEF), it has been able to increase its PAN and to engage in outreach to the local community with the aim of increasing the number of local disadvantaged children being admitted to the school. This, together with the inclusion of a lower qualifying score for disadvantaged local children, has resulted in the average percentage of disadvantaged students admitted to the school in Years 7-9 being 29% with the aim of this rising to over 30% for the whole school over time.

Located in the heart of Walsall, Queen Mary’s High School has been educating young women since it was founded in 1893. We are a busy, friendly and energetic school with a distinctive family-oriented ethos, a positive culture and an ambition for success. We draw our students from a wide area including Walsall, Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Sandwell and Staffordshire.

MFL at QMHS


French and Spanish teaching and teachers are an integral part of our Modern Foreign Languages teams, which consist of seven expert language teachers, offering French, German, Mandarin Chinese and Spanish to our students. It is a thriving and successful department, and a very rewarding team to work within.

Our Ofsted inspection in October 2021 judged the quality of education to be outstanding, recognising particularly the high quality of the curriculum, teaching and learning in languages. We are looking for a colleague who loves what they do and will enthuse and inspire our learners. Our students are exceptional in attitude and academic ability, they enjoy high challenge learning and respond with engagement and positivity.

The MFL team aims to enable all students to become proficient linguists and independent learners who strive to make progress and realise their potential. Through the learning of languages, we encourage students to become confident individuals and tolerant citizens. The MFL team is a hard-working, friendly and enthusiastic one with very high standards. We strongly encourage mutual support and the sharing of skills, ideas and experience and we regularly meet to review, share and plan good practice. Colleagues also value the frequent informal discussions that take place about lesson ideas and activities.

We are seeking to appoint a well-qualified and talented teacher to teach within our superb Modern Foreign Languages Department. The ability to teach Spanish and French to A Level is desirable. Experience in a grammar school setting is neither required not expected. We welcome applications from successful, inspirational teachers. The successful applicant will become part of a collaborative and supportive staff body, who share a vision to realise and achieve ambitious outcomes for every individual in our school.

If you are, like us passionate about having a positive impact on young people’s lives, and excited by this opportunity to teach exceptional young people, we warmly welcome your application.
