Elective Home Education Support

Maidstone, United Kingdom Kent County Council Full time

Advert
**Term time only - 40 weeks per year**

The Access to Education Team ensure that all children and young people (CYP) receive an education as is their entitlement by law.

We are looking to recruit a passionate individual with the drive and motivation to make a difference to the lives of children & young people in Kent.

You will provide support and advice to families who Electively Home Educate (EHE) their children and young people (CYP). You will visit families offering advice and guidance, recording the learning, progress, achievements, and welfare of CYP who are registered with the authority, across Kent, where this is needed.

You will have excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to manage complex and challenging situations.

You will work collaboratively with partners and colleagues to ensure that CYP registered to EHE are in receipt of a suitable education and that all Year 11 CYP have a recorded onward destination.

The role is one dedicated to supporting children in accessing the education to which they are entitled. It is the parent’s responsibility to educate, and the requirements of your role will vary on an individual case by case basis. You will be expected to offer helpful advice to those actively engaged in home education, and support in accessing education for those families where this is no longer their preferred approach. Mostly this will involve signposting families to access the right support where this is needed or simply logging activity where no direct involvement is invited.

The role requires you to be mobile throughout a wide operational area including travelling around the county of Kent. You should note that public transport is rarely a viable option as your role will involve you visiting families in very rural areas, often with limited public transport.

You will work Monday to Friday 9am-5pm, term-time only.

This post is considered by KCC to be a customer-facing position. The Council therefore has a statutory duty under Part 7 of the Immigration Act (2016) to ensure that post holders have a command of spoken English/Welsh sufficient for the effective performance of the job requirements. The appropriate standards are set out in the Job Description/Person Specification.

The recruitment process will include:

- Stage 1: Assessment Centre at Invicta House, Maidstone on Monday 27th March 2023
- Stage 2: Panel interview (virtual) on Wednesday 29th March 2023
