Teacher of MFL (Maternity Cover)

Dragon School has an exciting opportunity for a Teacher of MFL to join the team.

The Dragon seeks to appoint a French teacher to Years 5 to 8 who will be willing to make a wide contribution to the life of this busy, exciting and successful school. The position would suit a teacher with senior school (independent or maintained sector) experience, as well as those who have experience of teaching children of prep school age (8-13 years), whether as a newly qualified teacher or teaching for a number of years. Children take Common Entrance and Scholarship exams to leading senior schools at the end of Year 8.

The Department is lively, well-resourced and fully abreast of the latest developments in teaching and looks to develop potential in all areas of the subject.

All staff contribute to extra-curricular activities. Games players would obviously find their talents used, but the school is large enough for a great variety of cultural and academic interests to be welcomed and to provide ample opportunities for further career progress within the school. This is a fixed term contract starting on 23 February 2026 and ending on 31 August 2026 with the possibility of an extension by mutual agreement.
