Inspire their remarkable with us

Wishmore Cross Academy, part of Academies Enterprise Trust (AET), is a residential special school in Chobham, Surrey, for boys aged 9 to 16 years who have social, emotional and mental health difficulties. We can admit up to 70 students which means that class sizes are small and we work very closely with our students to ensure they get the most out of each day with us.

We are looking for a committed, driven, inspiring teacher to join our Art faculty and work with our young people to help them achieve the best possible outcomes. You will have passion and flexibility in order to deliver, with a creative, inspirational approach to delivering the curriculum.

We warmly welcome applications from both newly qualified and more experienced practitioners. As we have experience of supporting staff through their NQT year, we would also be happy to consider applications from NQTs.

We always enjoy visits so do come and see what makes Wishmore Cross so special! Call the office on 01276 857555 to arrange a time to pop in for a (socially distant) visit.

We passionately believe that every child can discover their own remarkable life. It’s what motivates us around here. We know this vision requires something extra. Which is why at AET, you’ll find more. More opportunities, so you can forge your own path. More care and support, so you can prioritise what matters most. More purpose, for you and for the children we’re inspiring.

We offer:  

•  More opportunity to grow your career - We’ll support you in developing your career and experience at this school or another AET school.    
•  More tailored support - We understand every academy is unique. We’ll give you tailored support and flexibility, allowing you to do what’s best for your children.     
•  More chance to see what’s out there - We create opportunities for teachers to visit other AET academies and learn from outside experience.    
•  More like minded colleagues, so you can benefit from others’ experience - You’re connected to our network of 57 academies and thousands of education professionals.     
•  More technology so you can make more impact - Google Workspace Enterprise for Education embedded throughout. Collaborative cloud technology gives you access to the latest tools, when and where it suits you. More tech enabled classrooms mean less time spent on admin and more time teaching.    
•  More time - We strive to minimise unnecessary distractions so you can have energy for your job, and your life.
