This role is offered as a permanent or one-year fixed term role, and it represents an excellent opportunity for an individual to strengthen our Attendance Team.

You will be an individual who enjoys working with spreadsheets, analysing numbers and reporting on them. You may be working in education and able to bring your experience to this role. Alternatively, you may be working outside education, but you have the experience and confidence to strengthen our team.

You could be a recent graduate who is not quite certain of your career path, but you have an affinity with numbers and spreadsheets and are willing to commit a year to this post whilst you determine which direction you want to go.

We want to hear from individuals who enjoy mainly working quietly and fastidiously but are equally comfortable in a busy school environment and are able to interact well with staff. We need individuals who are confident with numbers, data, excel spreadsheets; if these are your strengths we would like to hear from you.

You will be responsible for collecting student attendance information on a daily basis and inputting this into spreadsheets you have created to produce meaningful reports for Senior Leaders to act on. Monitoring student attendance is vital from a Safeguarding perspective, so you must be accurate with great attention to detail and able to work at pace when required to submit the daily reports we need to monitor attendance.

You will work alongside an experienced Attendance Manager and have the support of the Senior Pastoral Lead, Student Support Manager (Attendance) and Deputy Headteacher.

Positive relationships and a culture of high expectations of our students and ourselves are key aspects to the culture of our school and we are looking for people aligned to our values in all we do.
