What skills and experience we're looking for
School is not easy for every child, and missing school can put children off learning, cause anxiety, and make school feel more challenging than it needs to be.

This person will be a key home liaison and work with families and children to support good attendance to school.
You must be competent with undertaking the administration of attendance data, maintaining constructive relationships with parents/carers when exchanging information and conducting home visits within the community. Regardless of how difficult school may be for some children, every child has a right to reach their true potential. With your support, they will overcome the challenges they face.
