JOB SUMMARY

We are looking for a well-qualified and enthusiastic teacher of French and German to join our large and highly successful MFL Department. Altrincham Grammar school for Girls is a lead school for MFL development for Bright Futures Training (formerly the Alliance for Learning). The successful candidate will be expected to be able to teach French and/or German up to GCSE and both to key stage 3. For a suitably qualified candidate, there is also an opportunity to teach either A level French or German.

AGGS has a commitment to all pupils studying at least one MFL to GCSE. All pupils take two languages at KS3, which may be French, German or Spanish. We have language assistants for all three languages. The department is very well resourced with its own suite of MFL rooms. Results at both GCSE and A level are outstanding. In 2025, 80% of all GCSE entries were awarded grades 7-9, and 34% were at the very highest 9 grade. At A level 100% of entries were awarded A*-B.

We are open, supportive and flexible with high-quality CPD opportunities through our Teaching School Hubs and Professional Development Institute.
