Home School Liaison Assistant

The Postholder, supporting the work of the home school liaison manager, Key Stage Leaders/Heads of Department, Assistant Principal (SENDCo) and Assistant Principal Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL), will support the coordination Services responding to and providing proactive support to families. Through early intervention, the postholder will work directly with families and/or our vulnerable young people. The postholder will seek to engage and work collaboratively with a range of external support agencies. In addition, the Postholder will support the work of the DSL and Attendance Officer to monitor attendance and ensure appropriate work/resources are made available.

The specific responsibilities of this post require a flexible approach to working hours during term time and holiday periods. Availability as the first point of contact ('on-call') in responding to vulnerable children/families in need during holiday times will be agreed through the 'on duty' senior member of the Leadership team.
