What skills and experience we're looking for

We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and committed colleague who has a genuine excitement for excellence in learning and the teaching of Economics (A-Level) and enjoys working with young people, who will make a significant contribution to our Faculty. The ability to offer a second subject in addition to the Economics specialism would be desirable.

What the school offers its staff

Our aims are supported by our designation as a National Teaching School and as a School Centred Initial Teacher Training provider. We are committed to the professional learning and career development of our staff and work in conjunction with the River Learning Trust to continue to raise standards.

We value the wellbeing of our staff and aim to support colleagues throughout their working lives. Staff report high levels of wellbeing and attribute this to factors such as:

  • Well designed, sequenced and resourced curricula which are centralised

  • Feedback and marking approaches which are carefully considered for impact and workload

  • Clear, centralised Behaviour for Learning System; pastoral teams supported by non-teaching deputy year leaders

  • Lower than typical contact hours for classroom teachers and middle leaders

  • Excellent in-house and external CPD opportunities and regular opportunities for career development within the school and trust

  • Professional support for ECTs provided by experienced teams of staff

Commitment to safeguarding

The Cherwell School and the River Learning Trust are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children and preventing extremism. All staff must ensure that the highest priority is given to following the guidance and regulations to safeguard children and young people.

We are delighted that we were judged ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted (October 2022), as we feel this is a fair reflection of the school, not least as we recognize that we have the capacity to develop and improve further. We consider ourselves to be a school which has at its heart “opportunity, responsibility, excellence” and we aim to make this a deeper reality for all of our students and staff in the years to come.
