Teacher of Mandarin

The Swire Trust is funding the development of a Chinese Language Centre at Jordanhill School. As the work of the centre expands, the school is seeking to appoint an additional full-time teacher of Mandarin to join the existing team in delivering the centre’s aims and aspirations.

At present the centre teaches Mandarin to all pupils from P5-P7 in Jordanhill School and in neighbouring Broomhill Primary. All pupils in S1 study Mandarin and then have the option to continue in S2 prior to course choice for S3. National 5 Mandarin is delivered in S3 and S4 and Higher Grade and Advanced Higher will be offered in 2020-21 and 2021-22.

The anticipated commencement date is Monday 4th November or as soon as possible thereafter. If you wish to discuss the post further, then please contact the Rector Dr Paul Thomson. The deadline for applications is Monday 2nd September 2019.
