Wren Academy Enfield is the second school of the Wren Academies Trust which is sponsored by the London Diocesan Board for Schools and Berkhamsted School.

It was initially modelled on the successful Wren Academy Finchley, but every effort has been made to ensure that a distinctive ethos and approach is created which matches the needs and aspirations of the students who join the school.

The role of the Attendance Officer is to ensure students attend school regularly, identifying patterns of absence, and working with families, the leadership team and external agencies to improve attendance. Their role is both administrative and pastoral, acting as a key link between the academy and home. The purpose of the job is to both ensure that student attendance and punctuality is regularly monitored and that prompt action is taken to address attendance problems as well as working as part of the general administration team. The successful candidate will demonstrate excellent communication skills, a keen desire to learn and the ability to be part of a team. Training will be given where appropriate but experience of working in a fast-paced administrative environment with excellent spreadsheet and analysis skills.

The ability to work professionally and to deal with confidential and sensitive information is required. Relevant experience, together with the ability to interact appropriately across a number of levels, is also important. The successful candidate will demonstrate an ability to use their own initiative and to have a common sense approach.
