Job Introduction
Repton Prep is the ideal school for future teachers to gain experience in a boarding school setting, providing the perfect opportunity to engage fully in all aspects of school life and contribute to the teaching and learning, and pastoral development of our pupils.
We teach French from Year 1 and introduce Latin into the curriculum in Year 6, and Spanish from Year 7. Our MFL department is a vibrant place to be, with lots of practical and spoken lessons, supported by a dedicated Language Lab.
The MFL Resident Graduate Assistant will be expected to support lessons, offer one-to-one additional sessions to those that need either extension level work or support with catch up and foundations, as well as run after school language clubs and workshops. As the MFL Graduate Assistant, you will be able to support lessons and observe teachers in the classroom. As the year progresses, it will be possible to take small groups and offer additional sessions and lesson cover as required. You will learn the foundation skills needed to be an effective classroom practitioner.
There is also chance to explore your passions and gain experience in our Drama, Art, DT and Music departments, alongside contributing to the boarding community. Our MFL department has 3 teaching staff for you to collaborate with, who will support you in your professional development.
