Inspire their remarkable with us
Wishmore Cross Academy, part of Academies Enterprise Trust (AET), is a 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 provide a highly effective and individual package of education, care and pastoral support to young people who may have had only negative experiences of school. A safe, caring environment supported by high levels of staffing ensures each pupil has the opportunity to make progress and achieve their full potential.
Working with us:
We are looking for a passionate, motivated and dedicated English Teacher and we can also offer a TLR for taking on the responsibility of whole school Literacy Coordinator. You will work with our young people and 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. Teach First and AET (the multi-academy trust that we are part of) are delighted to be partnering for the expansion of the Early Carer Framework programme for September 2020. This is a remarkable opportunity, working together with a high quality delivery partner in Teach First. For any NQTs joining us in September, this will help you thrive and support you in the early stages of your career with AET.
The successful candidate will have experience teaching English, QTS and some knowledge of specific learning difficulties and a variety of behaviour management strategies to support children would be an advantage.
What we can offer:
* Subsidized staff housing for an exceptional candidate!
* An extremely friendly, supportive and caring team who all work together
* An approachable and welcoming Senior Leadership team who are actively involved in the day to day running of the school
* Free school lunches
* Free on-site parking

* The opportunity to develop your education career; Wishmore Cross has a track record of developing, progressing and training up staff via the School Direct programme.
* Wellbeing - we provide experiences, social learning and formal programmes that enable staff to develop new skills, and to work, collaborate, learn and develop with colleagues across our large AET network.
There is also regular support and supervision for staff to ensure they remain at the peak of their emotional well-being.
We warmly welcome candidates to come and see what makes Wishmore Cross so special. Please contact the school on 01276 857555 to arrange a time to pop in (following social distancing guidelines).
