Family Liaison and Attendance Officer
2 weeks ago
How would you like to be paid for five days but only work four*?
Our colleagues’ wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do at OFG, so we’re always looking for new ways to improve everyone’s work/life balance. We’re taking part in a trial of the 4-Day Working Week, meaning that you could be working one day less a week (or equivalent).
If the trial is a success, we’ll be rolling the 4DWW out across the Group – so there’s never been a more exciting time to join #teamOFG
Job Title: Family Liaison Officer
Salary: Up to £30,000 per annum – dependent on experience
Location: New Barn School, Newbury, Berkshire
Contract: Permanent Term Time Only
Hours: 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday 8.30am - 4.30pm including 1x 5pm finish
UK Applicants only. This role does not offer sponsorship.
As part of our continued growth, we now have a fantastic opportunity for a Family Liaison and Attendance Officer to join our close-knit team at New barn School.
About the role
This is your chance to make a lasting, positive impact on the lives of families experiencing educational (and potentially other) difficulties. Supported by a brilliant and dedicated team, you’ll work closely with parents, young people, carers and the local authority to explore the circumstances and see how collaborative, effective, life-changing resolutions can be agreed and put into place. It will also be up to you to coordinate visits to see parents, where you’ll talk at length and work out strategies for coping with whatever life throws at them. Then you’ll draw on your broad knowledge of local resources to help direct them to all the additional support they might need. Not to mention organising and taking part in admission interviews in partnership with the Head teacher.
This role will also include responsibilities for Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead.
Who we are looking for?
You’ll definitely have SEN-experience, worked with families to help determine what’s best for them, and be driven by genuine empathy and understanding. We’re looking for someone with strong contacts within the local authorities or the ability to develop them. You may have experiences of work with education, social services and healthcare professionals. And your experience of multi-agency work will have given you a deep understanding of legislation, policies and guidance around safeguarding and child protection. Not to mention the strongest team-working skills, matched only by your drive to progress in your career.
