About the job

Are you a coachable, collaborative, conscientious and meticulous person able to speak fluent French, and have some recent experience working in a secondary school?

Do you have a passion for helping all young people explore their abilities and develop their linguistic excellence?

If so, have you ever thought about training to teach French? Because if you’re all the above and more, then you’re perfect for our salaried teacher training programme!

As a Modern Foreign Languages (French) trainee teacher on the Grad2Teach salaried teacher training programme, you get paid to train to be a qualified teacher in 1-2 years. Your salaried teacher training placement will see you working as a trainee French teacher, either starting out in a support role, with a light timetable, or, depending on your experience, picking up a teacher's timetable right away.

All of our training takes place during the half-term holidays. This means you can work at your school full-time, earn a full-time salary, and train to be a qualified teacher at the same time!

You’ll have the opportunity to demonstrate and develop your language skills whilst also exploring new disciplines within the Modern Foreign Languages curriculum. Teacher training is as much about learning new skills as it is about imparting knowledge, and with Grad2Teach you’re always learning as you’re teaching. And, as our trainee, we’re with you, supporting you, at every step of the way.
