Full Job Description

The role of the Educational Welfare Officer is to take over when early interventions put in place by the Attendance Officer are proving to be ineffective. You will work alongside key members of the school, employees, young people, families and other agencies to:

  • Identify barriers to good attendance and cause of persistent absence
  • Promote a positive attendance and punctuality culture
  • Support students in achieving their full academic potential

    This is an excellent opportunity for a highly motivated and committed individual to join our pastoral team as an Education Welfare Officer. This growth is also enabling us to ensure that we have excellent student attendance.

    We are looking for an Educational Welfare Officer (EWO). This is an exciting opportunity to join Henley Bank High School and become an integral member of the team.
