About the Role

As an Attendance Officer, you will play a vital role in supporting pupils, families and staff to ensure excellent attendance across the school.

  • Producing detailed attendance reports and supporting early intervention strategies alongside the Pastoral Team.
  • Leading School Attendance Meetings and liaising with external agencies where required.
  • Working closely with parents, carers and staff to improve attendance and promote positive engagement with school.
  • Maintaining accurate records on school systems including SIMS, CPOMS and ClassCharts.
  • Supporting safeguarding and pupil wellbeing by identifying and reporting attendance-related concerns promptly.
  • Promoting a culture where attendance is everyone's responsibility and helping staff understand attendance procedures and expectations.

What We're Looking For:

  • A commitment to upholding the Catholic ethos and values of our school.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build positive relationships with pupils, families and staff.
  • Strong organisational skills and attention to detail.
  • Good literacy, numeracy and IT skills, with the ability to analyse attendance data effectively.
  • The ability to work confidently, sensitively and professionally with confidential information.
  • A proactive, resilient and solution-focused approach to supporting pupils and families.
  • Experience of working with young people, parents or within an educational environment (desirable).
  • Knowledge of attendance procedures, safeguarding and pupil welfare (desirable).
