AshtonunderLyne, Tameside, United Kingdom Tameside Council Full time

About the Role:

The Tameside Council is seeking a dedicated and impartial individual to serve as an Independent School Admission Appeals Panel Member. As a key member of our Democratic Services team, you will play a crucial role in ensuring that children and families receive a fair and independent hearing in the event of an education appeal.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Attend local appeal panel meetings, usually remotely, to sit on appeal hearings and make decisions with other panel members.
  • Listen to both sides of arguments impartially and make a decision based on the evidence presented.
  • Respect the views and opinions of all parties, including fellow panel members, and ensure that parents feel they have had a fair and independent hearing.
  • Help parents feel that their appeal has been handled competently, fairly, and within the law.

Requirements:

  • A good communicator and active listener.
  • Objective, impartial, and unbiased.
  • Good interpersonal skills.
  • Decisive.
  • Ability to work with others.
  • Happy to learn and keep up-to-date with new regulations.
  • Interested in education.
  • Appreciation of each individual's differing circumstances and backgrounds.
  • Sound judgement.
  • Willing to work remotely.

Eligibility:

You will be unable to sit on education appeal panels if you are a member of the local authority, have had any connection with the local authority, or are currently employed by the local authority. Teachers and School Governors are an exception to this and are able to be Independent Appeal Panel Members.

We are currently looking to recruit both Lay Members and Members with Education Experience.

How to Apply:

If you are interested in this role, please contact Natalie King, Member Services Manager, for an initial, informal discussion.
