Help lead a revival in modern foreign language teaching

In an increasingly globalised world, the ability to speak additional languages can provide a major career boost for school leavers. But the number of pupils taking a language GCSE exam has declined by 45% in the last 15 years.

There is also currently a shortage of modern foreign languages (MFL) teachers in schools across England. New Spanish and French teachers are particularly needed, due to rising and declining numbers of exams being taken respectively.

Inspire them and change your life

If you're looking for a rewarding way to use your language knowledge and ensure that it doesn't fade away, teaching a foreign language might be your ideal career. Not only will you help to ensure that the next generation have the language skills they need, you'll get to immerse yourself in the world of languages further.

You'll also:

• gain a fully funded PGCE worth 60 credits towards a master's

• receive expert support from your school and from us

• help us to fight educational inequality

• get to speak the language you love every day

• inspire pupils to embark on their own foreign language journeys.
