French Language Assistant

The King's School MFL Department is looking to appoint a talented and inspiring French Language Assistant who is passionate about French and dedicated to maximising student outcomes. The hours for this post will vary depending on pupil numbers, and the post involves leading individual and group conversation classes at A Level (Lower and Upper Sixth form) and GCSE, working closely with students to help develop their language skills, knowledge, cultural capital, and fluency. There is also the opportunity to support bilingual French students looking to extend their cultural knowledge, and to work towards examinations.

Languages play an integral role at King's, with a healthy uptake at GCSE and A Level. Our pupils aim for academic excellence, and the language assistants play a vital role in preparing them for their examinations, as well as developing their fluency and love for the language.
