Classroom Talent is currently recruiting for an Attendance Officer / School Administrator to join a secondary school based in Luton.
The role is to start ASAP on a long term basis through to December initially, and may extend to July 2027 with possible permanent role.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with previous school administration experience who is confident communicating with parents, students and staff.
Previous experience specifically within school attendance is desirable but not essential – we are particularly interested in candidates who already understand how a busy school office operates and would have experience working in a School admin role.
The Role
As an Attendance Officer, you will support the school with the day-to-day management of pupil attendance, including:
* Monitoring and recording daily pupil attendance and absences
* Making daily telephone calls to parents and carers regarding student absence
* Following up unexplained absences
* Updating attendance records and school systems accurately
* Communicating with parents via telephone and email
* Liaising with pastoral teams, teachers and senior leaders
* Producing attendance information and reports when required
* Supporting with general school administration
* Helping the school identify and follow up attendance concerns
About you
Previous experience working within a school administration position is essential.
You should also:
* Previous experience working with a school in a admin capacity
* Be confident making telephone calls to parents and carers
* Have strong communication and interpersonal skills
* Be organised and able to work in a busy school environment
* Have excellent attention to detail
* Be confident using IT and school administration systems
* Be professional when dealing with sensitive or confidential information
Previous Attendance Officer experience would be an advantage, but isn't essential for someone with strong school administration experience.
