In2023, Walthamstow Academy students achieved a Progress 8 score of 0.49. At A-Level, our students achieve excellently with many of them progressing to Russell Group institutions. Because we are so successful, the school is now full and oversubscribed on first choices alone.

We do not achieve these results by accident. At Walthamstow Academy, we believe in the best in everyone.

Within the community served by the Academy there is social and economic disadvantage with 35% of students being eligible for Pupil Premium. Almost60% have a first language other than English and a significant number have low levels of literacy on entry. Many students enter the Academy with low levels of attainment and the staff work hard to add value to their performance. Standards across the Academy are above national averages in most subjects.

This post is suitable for both experienced teachers or newly qualified teachers. The ability to offer 'textiles' would be an advantage. This is a fixed-term position until 31/08/2025.

What the school offers its staff

Laurus Cheadle Hulme (LCH) is a non-selective, non-denominational Free School. It opened in September 2018. We currently have a total of 1064 students on roll.

Cheadle Hulme is a pleasant residential suburb on the edge of the Borough of Stockport, eleven miles south of the centre of Manchester. The location enjoys the advantages of proximity to the open countryside of Cheshire and the Peak District and the cultural and sporting activities of a major city.

Our students are housed in a purpose-built building with access to state-of-the-art facilities and overlooking Bruntwood Park, with our Year 11 students progressing to Sixth Forms in the Laurus Trust. We share the same site as Cheadle Hulme Primary School.

In 2024 Laurus Cheadle Hulme achieved an outstanding set of GCSE results with over 78% of students achieving at least a grade 4 standard pass and 59% a strong pass in English and Maths. Additionally, 32% of all students grades were at 9-7, the top grades possible. Our Year 9 students also received phenomenal results in GCSE Spanish. 81% of our Year 9s achieved the gold standard of a grade 5 or better, 88% of students achieved at least a grade 4 or above, and 50% of students achieved a grade 7 or above. These results far outstrip national Year 11 figures. Teachers across the school are extremely proud of this achievement and look forward to seeing what the class of 2026 can achieve when they reach year 11!

The school is run by the Laurus Trust and replicates the outstanding education offered by the Trust’s founder school, Cheadle Hulme High School (CHHS), based in Stockport. CHHS is a hugely oversubscribed school and has been named as one of the UK’s top-performing schools in The Sunday Times, ranking as the 15th non-denominational comprehensive school in Manchester and the North West in the annual Parent Power Survey for 2022 and this year, was awarded ‘Northwest Comprehensive School of the Year 2024’.
