Kensington School is a small, thriving school which has for well over 50 years been one of
the leading British curriculum schools in Spain. It enjoys outstanding public examination
results, very low staff turnover, small classes and forward-looking family governors.
We aim to recruit fully qualified teachers, trained in the British Isles and who have a native
level of English. Please do not apply if you do not meet these requirements.
This vacancy arises due to the retirement of our longest serving member of staff. We are

limited English skills. Classes are taught in small groups for all primary years from EYFS to
Year 6. It is essential that you have a recognized qualification in EFL teaching and that you
have experience working with primary age children.
The successful applicant will be a dedicated and caring professional, ready to join our small,
supportive primary teaching team. You will work closely with all class teachers to prepare
and deliver lessons that enable pupils to access the British curriculum quickly and to develop
strong, confident communication skills in English. You will have substantial knowledge and
experience of how to develop language skills at both beginner and intermediate levels. You
should have a strong track record of teaching children to read, write and speak in English
with the aim of joining their year group’s daily English lessons as quickly as possible.
If you have any specific questions please do not hesitate to contact the school office before
applying.

its development.
