Teacher of English

Cheney School is a popular, high-performing school located in the heart of Oxford serving a diverse community of students who are eager to learn. The success of the school as an Academy has led to Cheney School expanding into a Multi Academy Trust.   The English Department is a key part of Cheney’s success, with 75% of students achieving A*-C at GCSE last year and 83% of students making or exceeding expected progress. We are keen to develop and improve these results even further – and we feel that recruiting the best possible teachers is the key to that aim.   Can you demonstrate to us that you:    

• Are passionate about helping students make excellent progress and reach their potential in English?
• Have a proven track record as an outstanding and creative practitioner?
• Have the desire and enthusiasm to play an active and collaborative role in contributing to a strong culture of sharing best practice, resources and ideas?
• Demonstrate the talent, interpersonal and leadership skills required to inspire and motivate students?
