An exciting opportunity to join the MFL team at Oasis Academy Sholing
Oasis Academy Sholing is a dynamic and rapidly improving school, committed to high standards and forward-thinking practice. We foster a culture of excellence, where both staff and students are supported to thrive.
Our academy is “A kind place to learn” – Ofsted, 2025
“Staff follow clear routines, which help students meet the school’s high expectations for behaviour. Lessons are typically calm, and teachers can teach without disruption.” – Ofsted, 2025
We are looking for a passionate and committed Teacher of MFL, with the ability to teach French across Key Stage 3 and 4. This is a fantastic opportunity for an Early Career Teacher, or a more experienced practitioner.
You will join a supportive, experienced department and contribute to a growing subject area that we are passionate about further developing across the Academy. We aim to increase the number of students studying languages at Key Stage 4 by delivering an engaging curriculum and offering meaningful extracurricular opportunities.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
