About the Role

Cognus, commissioned by London Borough of Sutton, provides education services to mainstream schools and specialist education providers in Sutton. As a wholly owned local authority, we deliver a wide range of services to improve the lives of children, young people, and families.

This exciting opportunity supports vulnerable learners holistically to achieve excellent outcomes. We seek a professional with experience in education settings, passionate about the inclusion of children and young people in education and society.

The ideal candidate will be organised, creative, flexible, and have excellent people skills. They will bring energy and enthusiasm, inspiring those they support, and building positive relationships, especially with young people.

This role is part of the Traveller Education Service within the Inclusion Service, providing support to children and young people, families, and educational settings. The Education Liaison Specialist will take responsibility for inclusion matters and the provision of 1:1 learning support for vulnerable pupils with Traveller heritage and ethnicity.

The post holder will provide support to Gypsy, Roma, and Traveller children and young people within both the London Borough of Sutton and the London Borough of Merton. They must be willing and able to travel regularly to schools across both boroughs to provide that support.

They will work closely with schools, support services, and other agencies, providing advice about the most effective ways to include children and young people in their education. The post holder will encourage and challenge schools, partners, and stakeholders to take a positive, active, and inclusive attitude towards Travellers.

A significant part of this role includes family liaison and providing holistic support via a multi-agency framework to ensure that the young person and family is supported at all levels. The postholder will be responsible for providing information, advice, and guidance to support specific cases, and ensuring successful monitoring, tracking, and reporting.
