Teacher of Russian (Maternity Cover)

St Paul's Girls' School is an extraordinary institution. While we consistently achieve some of the best GCSE and A-level results in the country, we believe education is about far more than exams. With fewer rules and no uniform, we actively nurture creativity, curiosity and a love of discovery. Our rich co-curricular programme builds confidence, encourages independence and strengthens our connection with the wider community. It's a distinctive environment - ambitious, thoughtful and forward looking - but most importantly, it is a place where people matter.

This sense of freedom extends to the people who work for us, so you can expect considerable scope to demonstrate your potential and enhance your skills.

We are seeking a part-time teacher of Russian to join our large and lively department to develop pupils' linguistic skills and understanding of other traditions.

To be succesful, you will have excellent academic qualifications and demonstrable interest in the history, culture and literature of other countries, as well as experience of travel or life there.

In return, you can expect a comprehensive package of rewards, including a pension scheme, private medical insurance after five years' service, life assurance, season ticket loan, free access to our extensive leisure facilities, free lunches, free eye tests, an advice and counselling service and a generous reduction on fees for your family.

Hours: Tuesday afternoon, Thursday and Friday morning.

Contract: Temporary, maternity cover
