Attendance Improvement Manager

Attendance Improvement Manager

Grade H, Point 14-17
(£29,540 – £31,022 FTE / £25,408 – £26,683 Actual)

37 hours per week / 39 weeks per year

‘Pupils are happy to attend this school. The school’s values include honesty, excellence, ambition, respect and teamwork. The school’s culture is rooted in these values. There are positive relationships between staff and pupils. Staff have high expectations, and pupils live up to these.’

‘Staff are proud to work at the school. They feel well supported by leaders in respect of workload, well-being and managing pupils’ behaviour. Staff value the professional development they receive.’

We seek to appoint an Attendance Improvement Manager to promote the importance of good attendance with students and their parents and carers and implement strategies to improve attendance based on latest research and evidence-based approaches.

Interested candidates will ideally have a good knowledge and prior experience of school attendance procedures and processes, however, whilst experience with attendance procedures would be an advantage, this role may also suit those with experience in well-being, SEND or other relevant areas such as Pupil Premium.

This role will be incredibly fulfilling but equally as demanding. We require someone who has strong interpersonal skills, with the ability to influence and negotiate in a patient and resilient way, whilst smiling and remaining positive throughout. You will be part of the wider Pastoral Team and lead the attendance administrators and the KS5 Well-being and Attendance Officer.

This is a permanent post. Term time plus training days (39 weeks). Hours are Monday-Thursday 7.45am – 3.45pm, and Friday 7.45am – 3.15pm, with a 30-minute unpaid break each day.

If you feel that you are the perfect candidate for the above role, or you would like more information, we would love to hear from you.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. This post will be subject to an enhanced DBS disclosure.
