Who we are:

All Saints’ Academy, Cheltenham is a successful 11 – 18 secondary, Anglican Church Academy, sponsored by the Diocese of Gloucester. In many ways All Saints’ is a unique and special place to work.

While now exclusively part of the Anglican church, All Saints’ was founded when a Catholic school and Anglican school merged. There has long been Catholic education in this part of Cheltenham which we are keen to sustain into the next generation of students that come through the Academy.

Our Academy is immersed in the ‘Life Vision’ of the diocese and we have a vision to ensure we serve as a place: ‘Where every member of our extended family realises their God-given potential, inspired by John 10:10. Jesus said ‘I have come so you may have life in all its fullness’.

With a purpose:

‘To be a beacon of hope founded on Christian values serving Cheltenham and the Diocese of Gloucester where there is excellence in learning, achievement and fulfilment’.

Since opening in September 2011, All Saints Academy has become among one of the best performing non-selective secondary schools in Cheltenham and Tewkesbury. We are an outward facing Academy that has the local community and Diocese of Gloucester in our hearts.

In All Saints’ Academy, there is the belief that Christ is at the centre of all we do and are. Rooted in His teaching, we seek to fulfil in every member of our community their full potential so they are able to ‘live life to the full’ and recognise that they are called to use their gifts and talents for the benefit of all.

We seek to appoint a Catholic Chaplain to work alongside our Anglican Chaplain in deepening our Christian ethos.

A Chaplain who has a passion to provide ‘Life in all its fullness’ for all our students, staff, families and the local community. T

his appointment will suit an ordained or lay candidate and requires a working commitment of 3 - 5 days. There may also be the requirement to participate with local parishes on the occasional weekend or evening event or service.

Sponsored by the Anglican Diocese of Gloucester, we are an Academy serving at the heart of our local community. All Saints’ Academy has a Life Vision, ‘Where every member of our extended family realises their God-given potential, inspired by John 10:10. Jesus said 'I have come so you may have life in all its fullness’.
