This isn’t just a data-entry job. It’s a role in education administration with a team that values continuous learning.

We are the team that ensures students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) get the right support to thrive. As our Admin Assistant, you will help to keep everything running smoothly. You will be working closely with our Lead SEND Administrator, our SENCO, and the wider team.

The successful candidate will have strong IT and administrative skills, and a genuine passion for ensuring every student receives the support they need.
