Come and build the school of the future with us

Chester International School opened in September 2017. We are a pioneering state funded 14-19 school, housed in a state-of-the-art facility in the heart of Chester. We are creating the school of the future with a blended use of technology, progressive pedagogies, individualised approach to learning, and authentic global connections embedded into our curriculum.

Chester International School is a ‘Good’ school as judged by Ofsted in its recent inspection:

‘Leaders and staff share aspirations for all pupils and students to succeed academically and personally. Leaders have developed a broad and ambitious curriculum with an international dimension. Pupils and students follow courses that are tailored to their specific needs and interests. Leaders have thought carefully about the knowledge pupils should learn. Teachers ensure that pupils build their knowledge in a logical order. Teachers use assessment strategies successfully to check that pupils have learned the curriculum, and to address any misconceptions that may arise. Pupils and students enjoy their learning, and achieve well in a range of subjects.’ Ofsted February 2022

We are an International Baccalaureate World School offering GCSE's and Middle Years Programme in Years 10 and 11, and both the Diploma Programme and Career Programme in the Sixth Form.

We are an inclusive school, we believe that diversity drives innovation and differences are highly valued. Be yourself, we like it that way. We encourage applications from a diverse range of applicants.

Chester International School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All appointments are subject to an enhanced DBS check, together with pre-employment medical, qualification, reference, identity, Right to Work, Prohibition from Teaching and Section 128 checks.

In addition, applicants who have lived outside the UK for more than 6 continuous months will be required to provide an overseas criminal record check if they are living or have lived abroad, which they need to obtain themselves. An online search will also be carried out as part of due diligence on all short-listed candidates.
