Secondary English teacher | Teaching positions in Spain
My client is a British curriculum school for boys and girls aged 3 to 18. The school follows the National Curriculum for England and Wales and prepares its pupils for further education both in Spain and abroad. The school values both the academic and social development of each pupil through individual attention and multilingualism.
After Year 11 the school offers A-Level courses and Bachillerato Modalidad courses.
A-Levels (Advanced Levels) take two years to complete. They are offered in the following subjects: English, Spanish, French, Maths, Chemistry, Physics, Biology, IT, PE, Drama, Art, Music, General Studies, Geography, History and Business Studies. Pupils study towards 3 or 4 A levels according to their abilities, interests and ambitions. In order to enter A-level, pupils must gain at least 5 IGCSEs or equivalent, at Grade C or above. Pupils should achieve a grade B or above in the subjects they wish to study at A-Level. The A-Level Handbook gives more detail and contains the application form which pupils must complete before being admitted to study A-levels.
A-Levels prepare students for university entrance in the UK, Spain and other international institutions. However, for entrance to certain courses in Spanish Universities we recommend that students choose to study, alongside their A-Levels, Bachillerato Modalidad subjects in order to prepare for the Spanish university entrance exam, Selectividad.
Pupils follow the National Curriculum for England and Wales for subjects taught in English and the requirements of the Spanish Ministry of Education for subjects taught in Spanish.
Students spend approximately 80% of their day learning in English and the remaining 20% learning in Spanish.
