What skills and experience we're looking for
We're seeking a proactive, compassionate, and highly organised Attendance Officer to support our Hospital Short-Term Provision (Home Teaching) service. This essential role bridges the gap between education and home for pupils who cannot attend school. You’ll play a crucial role in:
• Encouraging and ensuring pupil attendance at both in-person and online lessons delivered in the home.
• Supporting the Centre Leader with planning and scheduling lessons.
• Carrying out home visits to help families prepare for home teaching, including completing risk assessments.
• Building strong relationships with pupils, families, and staff to reduce barriers to engagement and promote a positive learning experience.
This is more than just an administrative post—you will be a key link in helping some of our most vulnerable learners reconnect with education.
What We’re Looking For
• A strong communicator who’s confident in working with families, children, and professionals.
• Experience in attendance, safeguarding, or family support work is highly desirable.
• Someone who thrives in a flexible, fast-paced, and people-focused role.
• Strong planning and IT skills for managing tutor deployment and lesson tracking.
• A real team player, committed to improving outcomes for children.
Why Join Us?
• A role with real purpose and visible impact
• Supportive leadership and professional development opportunities
• Flexible and varied working days – every week is different
• Be part of a dedicated team that believes education should be accessible to all
Apply today and help us ensure that every child gets the support they need to thrive – wherever they are.
