Queenswood is a progressive boarding and day school for around 430 girls, aged between 11 and 18, where boarders make up more than half of the School. An all round education focuses on equipping the girls with all the life skills required of women in the 21st century. Within a caring and supportive framework, the girls enjoy a dynamic academic curriculum, supported by a diverse and exciting co-curricular program.<\/span><\/p>\n

We are looking for someone who can teach Japanese either full-time or part-time across all year groups up to and including Advanced Level dependent on experience and qualifications.

The successful candidate will be a dynamic, experienced teacher of Japanese and ideally qualified, capable of enthusing students and maintaining the successful profile of the Japanese department. He or she will have the ability to administer the GCSE Japanese Speaking Paper and should be keen to provide additional speaking practice outside the standard timetable in the lead up to the examination period.\u00a0Candidates will possess a wider understanding and passion for Japanese culture and the language. For full-time applicants, an ability to deliver lessons that meet the standards and course requirements defined by the A level specification is paramount. Please detail in writing the hours and\/or level of Japanese teaching experience in your application.<\/span><\/p>\n

Queenswood is primarily a boarding school but we welcome day boarders as well. The successful applicant would be prepared to take on additional responsibilities and duties beyond their classroom role and to take a full part in the life of the school.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
