About the School - Lorenzo solano Tendero
1342 students | 61 nationalities | 6 sites | 1 school
Hastings School aims to provide a high-quality education within a culture of care. Founded in 1971, Hastings School was one of the first in Madrid to deliver the British National Curriculum with English as the primary language of instruction. It is a school that is growing rapidly with a new 21st Century Sixth Form teaching block opened in September 2019 and a new Primary campus in September 2021.
As part of the Cognita Group, our staff is able to access considerable professional development opportunities and share best practice with colleagues in other schools.
Most teachers who come to Madrid choose to stay as it offers a superb quality of life with wonderful weather, culture, sport, food and people (something for everyone!). You can even find skiing during the winter only one hour north. It is a great base from which to explore Spain and Europe and the cost of living is lower than the UK.
The school now has an exciting opportunity for an experienced Secondary Teacher of Spanish to join our fantastic team. This is a Maternity Cover position.
