Teacher - Dutch and German

Full-time • Senior School Leidschenveen

Senior School Leidschenveen (SSL) is looking for a full-time German and Dutch Teacher.

At SSL, language learning is valued with all students learning an additional language up to the age of 18. In the Modern Foreign Languages department, all students can learn Dutch, French, German and Spanish. The Modern Foreign Languages department is lively and collaborative and the students we teach are motivated and ambitious. Excellent professional development opportunities are available, and participation is encouraged. We support a range of other languages within the faculty for students wishing to sit qualifications in other languages. All staff and learners are issued with devices as a part of the school's 1:1 initiative.

The role will initially be based at Senior School Leidschenveen (SSL) and may require the candidate to work in another campus in the future.

The Candidate:

The ideal candidate will be suitably qualified to teach, and have experience of teaching, German and Dutch as a second language. Experience of the English National Curriculum, GCSEs and the IBDP examinations would be an advantage but not essential.

You will work in a lively and collaborative environment and be keen to promote German and Dutch within the school, both inside and beyond the classroom. The successful candidate will have the skills to inspire students with an enthusiasm for learning.
The Role

German is taught in mixed ability classes from Year 7, along with French, Spanish and Dutch. Moving into Year 8, students choose two from French, Spanish and German, to continue their studies in. Dutch is taught in ability sets in Years 7-9.

Students can select German at GCSE level and follow the Pearson course. Students learning Dutch can take the CNaVT exam at A2 level in Year 9 (14yrs old), and A2 or B1 level at the end of Year 11 (16 yrs old). Both subjects are available to study as part of the IBDP framework as either a Language A or B.

The salary range for this position is 4516,15 - 6145,86 gross EUR monthly (full-time), depending on experience. All figures shown are including the 9% holiday allowance.
