The posting

This is a role for someone who can remove barriers to school attendance by working directly with pupils, families and partner agencies to improve daily attendance and punctuality — with a particular focus on disadvantaged pupils, Pupil Premium and young carers. You will use attendance data to target support, run family outreach, and help the school exceed national attendance figures for all pupil groups.

What you'll be doing

  • Hold responsibility for improving attendance for a caseload of pupils, including Pupil Premium and young carers.
  • Monitor daily attendance and punctuality, record actions taken and produce half-termly attendance reports.
  • Work closely with families using outreach and tailored strategies to re-engage pupils and remove barriers to attendance.
  • Liaise with the Associate Assistant Principal (attendance), Vice Principal (pastoral), Heads of Year, form tutors, the LA Attendance Officer and other external agencies to coordinate support.
  • Support and prepare materials for attendance meetings with staff and parents.
  • Help identify and access funds (via the DOL responsible for Pupil Premium) to support individual pupils where appropriate.
  • Maintain and update attendance records and provide administrative support as required.
  • Contribute to transition planning for pupils with prior attendance issues and signpost pupils for Early Help where relevant.
  • Take part in a rota for late duties and undertake any other duties commensurate with the grade.

What we're looking for

Essential:

  • GCSEs including English and Maths.
  • Demonstrable experience working in a school or attendance-related service and with multi-agency partners.
  • Knowledge of current attendance guidance and the legal framework around school attendance.
  • Understanding of issues affecting non-attendance and safeguarding responsibilities.
  • Strong written and interpersonal skills, confident IT ability (Microsoft Office, email).
  • Ability to handle confidential information sensitively and to engage effectively with pupils, parents and professionals.

Desirable:

  • Prior experience of working with disadvantaged cohorts (Pupil Premium) or young carers.

About the team or department

You will be part of the pastoral / Pupil Support Team, reporting to the Associate Assistant Principal responsible for attendance and working alongside the Vice Principal responsible for pastoral care and the LA Attendance Officer.

What we offer

  • Salary and grade: TCAT GRADE 6 (scp 15-22) £26,404 - £30,303 (actual).
  • 37 hours per week, term time only plus 3 days.
  • A role with direct impact on pupils' school engagement and outcomes.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
