This is an exciting opportunity for an individual who is passionate about supporting young people and who can work effectively as part of a dedicated and supportive ALN team. The successful candidate will be responsible for managing and coordinating the administration and organisation of statutory ALN processes for mainstream pupils, ensuring that support is delivered efficiently and effectively.

The role will also involve supporting the management, coordination and delegation of activities undertaken by support staff.

Our school is committed to creating a supportive and ambitious environment where every young person has the opportunity to thrive. We value collaboration, high expectations and a strong culture of care, and our ALN provision plays an important role in ensuring that all learners are supported to achieve their full potential.

We are looking for someone who is organised, proactive, flexible and able to work collaboratively, with excellent communication and administrative skills and a genuine commitment to making a positive difference to the lives of our young people.

If you are enthusiastic about working in a busy and rewarding school environment and would like to contribute to the continued development of our ALN provision, we would be delighted to hear from you.
