King’s Oak Academy is situated in the heart of the South Gloucestershire community and is within easy commuting distance of Bristol and Bath. The academy has been part of the Cabot Learning Federation since 2011 and enjoys the benefits from being part of a mature, successful MAT which offers access to excellent professional services and opportunities to work in collaboration with experienced professionals across the trust.

As an all-through school, King's Oak is in a privileged position to educate children aged 4-16 and support their families. The academy staff structure and estates are divided into three phases (Lower School = Reception to Year 4, Middle School = Years 5-8, Upper School = Years 9-11). This structure ensures that learning is high quality and bespoke for each child, long-term relationships are fostered with families and King's Oak employees benefit from the unique CPD and leadership opportunities that are available as a result of working in an all-through community school.

We are a diverse and inclusive community of 36 academies across five cluster regions in the South West that is committed to excellence and making a positive impact. Our people bring unique perspectives, but we’re all driven by a shared moral purpose and a passion for making a positive impact, whether in a teaching, leadership or support role. We’re proud to foster a culture where everyone can thrive, feel valued, and make a meaningful difference to the lives of others.

We are an equal opportunity employer and proud to serve a diverse student population and our communities. We strongly believe that representation matters and so encourage applications from underrepresented and global majority groups including ethnicity, gender, transgender, age, disability, sexual orientation or religion.

We aim to remove any barriers to employment, ensuring everyone can compete on equal terms. Job share, part-time and flexible working opportunities will be considered.
