We are looking for a talented and hard-working individual to join us as a teacher of Welsh (maternity cover).
The Bishop of Llandaff is an 11-18 co-educational comprehensive school serving the Christian and non-Christian communities within the city and surrounding areas including The Vale of Glamorgan, Caerphilly, Rhondda Cynon Taff, and Bridgend. Standards of achievement at all levels are exceptionally high, with outcomes consistently performing amongst the best schools in Wales and rest of the UK. However, the school is more than just about examination outcomes. Our students take part in a broad range of activities that help them become "well-rounded" and our strong Christian ethos helps shape our students to become positive role models in our society. It genuinely is a happy place to learn and work! We want every student to have the best start in life by providing them with an outstanding education! We seek to ensure each student in our care achieves their full potential academically; develops the skills necessary to be successful in our ever-changing world; and understands a sense of morality guided by the gospel values of love, acceptance, responsibility, and forgiveness. These aims are delivered through a commitment to providing high quality learning experiences, a strong pastoral system and an extensive range of sporting, cultural, physical, and extra-curricular activities.
About the role
Welsh is a highly popular and very successful subject at the school. Standards at all key stages are exceptionally high and students are very enthusiastic towards the subject. The quality of teaching and learning within the Welsh department is consistently strong and the successful applicant would be joining a highly effective team. The department is situated on the second floor of A block, which is the main building. All classrooms are equipped with up-to-date technology including interactive boards and visualizers.
Beyond the classroom, the department provides a range of opportunities for educational visits, as well as a number of whole-school initiatives to promote the Welsh language. As part of the induction process, all new members of staff receive a very strong programme of support. This includes an allocated member of staff to help with the operational elements of joining a new school, as well as a bespoke package to meet individual need. All teaching staff are also issued with a school 2-in-1 laptop device. The role would suit a newly qualified Welsh teacher searching for their first position, or an experienced teacher looking for a fresh challenge in a different context.
