[CLOSING DATE: Tue, 14 Mar 2017] Darland High School is an 11-16 High School north of Wrexham and two minutes from the border with England. The population of the school has risen dramatically over the last four years and this trend will continue in September 2017 when the roll will reach 860. Estyn described this school as “a very good place to teach”. Visitors frequently comment on the friendliness and politeness of our students.
The governors of Darland High School are looking to appoint a passionate Welsh teacher and a committed team player to lead our Faculty of Languages. You will join a high performing team, who have experienced significant success in raising both the profile and the standards of Welsh in the school. Results at Key Stages 3 and 4 are significantly above both Family of Schools and national averages. Such is the popularity of Welsh as a subject, that it gained the highest approval rating by both students and parents in a recent 360° survey. Over 65% of last year’s Y11 achieved Full Course GCSE C+ in 2016 and nearly all achieved a GCSE C+ in the short course. The faculty have embraced fully, the forthcoming changes at GCSE and are looking forward to continuing our upward trend of improvement.
