The role

We are looking to appoint a dedicated and professional Attendance & Pastoral Officer who will work alongside the Senior Leadership Team, Heads of Year and our Student Services teams to support young people and raise achievement by improving attendance and engagement. If successful, you will have a real opportunity to improve the life chances of young people.

The precise job description will be finalised upon appointment, taking into account the specific skills and experiences of the successful candidate. The post will be in the 6th form team, working with post-16 students and families and will have attendance as the primary focus, but successful candidates will be more than purely attendance officers; you will also be very much part of our Student Services team, playing a broader role in providing pastoral care for all students.

About the school

Lymm High School is a 11-18 school with nearly 1900 students (360 in the 6th form) and exceptional resources, including 28 acres of beautiful grounds, a swimming pool, leisure complex and our own residential centre in Anglesey. A very good and well-established school already, we have made rapid progress in recent years and have no intention of resting on our laurels. The potential here is huge and it is a lovely place to work and thrive.

About you

Successful candidates will have experience of working in a school or college environment and are highly likely to have some direct experience of working on attendance. It will also be an advantage to be familiar with the use of SIMS to record and analyse attendance patterns. However, above all we are looking for people who work well in teams, are flexible, resilient and ‘can do’ in their attitude to work and who can form strong relationships with young people and their families. Your attitude, potential and willingness to learn are at least as important as your prior experience.

This school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful applicant’s appointment will be subject to satisfactory pre-employment clearances including a Disclosure and Barring Service check (formally CRB).
