You will have the opportunity to explore various aspects of teaching, ministry, sports and a huge variety of activities; all in the context of a strong and caring community.
We have a wonderful team that will enable you to develop in leadership, and build your experience across a variety of areas, including Christian ministry, education and much more.
Based in Cheltenham, you will join a team that is here to share the Gospel and be part of the rhythm and life of the School, with a focus on 7-13 year olds or 14-18 year olds.
“I’ve loved every moment… it has been so amazing to be part of this community and walk alongside young people.”
“This has been the best two years… I’ve learnt so much and had such a good time.”
"It’s been fantastic to try out school life before committing to a teaching career. The experience has really clarified what I want to do beyond.”
“Having a job fresh from Uni that took care of my accommodation and meals was such a blessing. I’ve absolutely loved living on site in the community.”
It’s a perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in every area of school life and come alongside children from every year group.”
