TOA Leisure
We want to become a true hub of the local community, sharing our inspiring new facilities with the families and community that we serve, offering a broad range of activities and events, outside of school hours. Inviting community groups, activities, adult learning and events into the Academy is part of our commitment to sharing our ambitions and our facilities to raise opportunities and standards for everyone.
As an extended school, and as part of the general regeneration programme for Oxfordshire, with our outstanding new facilities, we are keen to provide a range of activities and services to everyone in the local community, meeting their specific needs and opening up the pathway for enriched learning and fun experiences.

We have many partnerships in place that go a long way to enhancing the learning experience for all our students and the community. These partnerships strengthen the breadth of the curriculum by bringing in outside expertise, offering work experience and opportunities for development and learning outside the classroom or Academy setting.
The Oxford Academy may hold interviews as and when applications are received, and this job may be withdrawn at any point without notice. With this in mind, you are encouraged to apply as early as possible.

OUR ‘HOW?’ is through the highest support and challenge for our schools and each other, underpinned by our principles.
Our employees benefit from a wide variety of support including extensive continuing professional learning and development opportunities, wellbeing and staff networks and access to Defined Benefit Pension Schemes (TPS and LGPS) for all staff.
