We are a Multi Academy Trust comprising of six secondary schools and one primary school with over 750 employees and over 5,500 students, based in Dudley, West Midlands.
The Crestwood School is a thriving, inclusive school with a strong commitment to supporting all students in achieving their full potential.
We are seeking a highly organised, motivated, and dedicated individual to join our team as an Attendance Officer to provide absence cover until December 2026 (or sooner, if the substantive postholder returns).
The Attendance Officer plays a vital role in supporting our school by monitoring, promoting, and improving pupil attendance and punctuality. You will work closely with students, families, and staff to ensure that excellent attendance is maintained and barriers to learning are addressed.
Key responsibilities include:
Monitoring daily attendance records and identifying patterns of absence
Communicating with parents/carers to follow up absences and lateness
Producing attendance reports and working with senior leaders to address concerns
Supporting interventions to promote improved attendance
Liaising with external agencies when appropriate
The successful candidate will:
Have excellent communication and interpersonal skills
Be highly organised with strong attention to detail
Be confident using data systems and Microsoft Office
Show initiative and resilience in managing sensitive situations
Have previous experience in a school or similar setting (desirable but not essential)
We offer a friendly, supportive environment and the opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of our students. If you are dependable, attentive, and committed to helping students succeed in a fair and well-organised environment, we would love to hear from you.
