The Attendance Officer will work alongside key school staff to promote excellent attendance, reduce levels of absence and work with children and families to identify and overcome barriers to attendance.
As part of The Wensum Trust, we believe that our shared duty is to help every child to develop into high achieving, confident, healthy, caring and resilient members of their family and community. We want our schools to be healthy environments where both children and staff can develop and where strong, positive relationships are key. Our school, therefore, practises a relational approach with children, our families and our communities. We are particularly interested in working with people who share Our Qualities; who will work effectively and flexibly as part of a team.
At Hellesdon High School we are committed to evidence-informed classroom practice and a knowledge rich curriculum in every subject. We believe that empowering students with knowledge is the best way to help all our young people to become creative, well-round, successful life-long learners.
We care about bringing together the most able people, to help us achieve our vision of providing a rounded education for children, quality support for their families and opportunities to enrich our communities. We have an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) which all staff can access 24 hours a day. The EAP provides counselling services, legal information and guidance, musculoskeletal services and online resources such as nutrition diaries, healthy eating plans, personal coaching questionnaires and tools and fitness programmes.
