Job overview

The governors of this very successful Catholic High School wish to appoint an additional Attendance Improvement Officer to join our Pastoral Team.

Cardinal Allen is a great place to work and an excellent community to belong to. We receive tremendous support from our parent body and a committed group of Governors. Our pupils actively engage in all aspects of school life, and there is a culture of mutual support and openness.

The successful candidate will:

 Undertake all aspects of attendance administration;

 Work as a key part of the Pastoral Team to improve pupil attendance and punctuality;

 Support families and pupils to improve attendance leading to improved outcomes;

 Be enthusiastic, resourceful and keen to ensure that the highest possible standards of personal development and well-being are achieved;

 Have the skills to play a key role in the continued development of this key area;

 Be willing to go the extra mile for our pupils.

This is a new, permanent addition to our Pastoral Team, acknowledging that improved pupil attendance will be a game changer in transforming the opportunities for our pupils. Whilst we may have the nation’s best fifty teachers, they are of limited value to those pupils whose attendance isn’t outstanding. Our new colleague will play a significant part in supporting our pupils and their families to improve attendance and to remove barriers to learning. He/she will have a shared responsibility for the administrative work involved in recording and monitoring pupil attendance across the school, analysing data and attendance patterns, and enthusiastically supporting the work of the entire team. The post holder will undertake duties and have responsibility for monitoring of attendance of pupils within the school and for developing and implementing systems for improving pupil attendance and punctuality.

Section 48 Denominational Inspection Report

'Pupils are proud to belong to Cardinal Allen Catholic High School; they are greatly appreciative of all that the school provides and how it supports and nurtures them. They feel encouraged and inspired to live by the school motto and be all that you can be.

Leaders and governors are deeply committed to the Church’s mission in education; they are unequivocal in prioritising the Catholic life of the school. As a result, staff and pupils’ understanding of the school’s mission is outstanding. The ethos of the school is rooted firmly in the teaching of the Catholic Church. The fruits of this ethos are manifest in the pupils and staff in the school; through the very strong relationships and in the profound sense of belonging and of pride that exists. The behaviour and attitudes of pupils observed throughout the inspection were exemplary.

Cardinal Allen is an outstanding Catholic school; the capacity to improve still further is also outstanding.'
