The Cherwell School is seeking to appoint an enthusiastic technician to support the work of our Art Faculty. Our Art faculty is a thriving faculty, based on both sites of the school (the sites are separated by the Marston Ferry Road). The South Site is predominantly for year 7, 8 & 9, while the North Site is for year 10 to 13 students.

The successful candidate must be enthusiastic and well organised to support our team of Art Teachers in the setup of lessons in order to create a supportive and efficient learning environment. In addition, they will have excellent practical skills, enjoy working as part of a team and have a ‘can do’ attitude.

We are open to applications from those who have different skills within the Art area; including painting, drawing, printing, 3D, photography, digital technology, textiles and ceramics. Applicants with specialisms or a wide range of skills are welcome to apply.

About our school:- We are a high performing and oversubscribed comprehensive school in Oxford with approximately 2,000 students on roll, including 680 in the Sixth Form. 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.

If you would like to have a conversation about the role, prior to application, please email Louise Scott (lscott@cherwellschool.org) or phone 01865 558719.

Education has the power to change lives, communities and society for the better. At RLT we believe that we can achieve more for our pupils, trainees, staff and communities by working together rather than alone. Schools in RLT are united by a common belief in the benefits of working together, and by our commitment to shared principles.

OUR VISION is for our schools and SCITT to improve rapidly, continuously and sustainably: to be better faster together.

OUR ‘WHY?’ is that children and young people ‘only get one go’ in school and therefore as part of RLT we aim to ensure the best possible ‘go’ for our pupils.

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.
