The Vacancy

We are seeking an analytical coordinator, able to build relationships with parents and staff, ensuring the attendance of vulnerable young people with complex needs.

The Attendance Officer provides excellent stakeholder engagement to support the actioning of the TCES Attendance Toolkit, embedding routine attendance, recording and monitoring, and supporting pupils, parents and staff to ensure the pupils get the most out of their education through TCES' unique online provision.

TCES National Online School (NOS), the first – and only – Department for Education accredited online special school, is a growing service provider across the UK, engaging with young learners virtually. These young people have lengthy gaps from formal education for a variety of reasons, with the majority displaying Emotional Based School Avoidance (EBSA).

This is a very exciting time in the development of the online school, recently nominated for several industry leading awards, including TES and NASEN Specialist Provision of the Year.

Essential requirements to be successful in the role are:

  • A champion of SEN and advocate for young people, with similar values to ours: Expect the very best from each other; Develop a strong work ethic; Respect and appreciate all difference; Include everyone and exclude no one; Listen to and involve everyone; Never give up on each other!
  • Resilient and robust, role modelling outstanding professionalism.
  • Demonstrable experience of inclusion, attendance or coordination within SEND, therapeutic or outreach education sector. 
  • Understanding of neurodiversity, including ASC and/or SEMH, and behaviour as a form of communication.
  • Robust IT skills, with substantial experience in successfully engaging with stakeholders at all levels.
  • Proven organisational skills, with ability to plan workloads, prioritise tasks and high levels of attention to detail.
  • Proactive and innovative, collaborating with team members in other disciplines, whilst also with the ability to work flexibly and independently.

The Company

TCES is an independent social enterprise, providing specialist therapeutic education based in London supporting exceptional neurodiverse children and young people aged 7 to 19 who have special educational needs and disabilities typically associated with autism, social emotional and mental health needs and associated disorders. Most of them will have experienced multiple placement breakdowns and significant trauma, often resulting in behaviour that challenges. On average pupils will have been excluded from other provisions up to three times before reaching us and had significant periods out of education.  

TCES pupils learn at one of our two schools, at our Create Learning Primary, through our Create in the Community service or within our National Online School; our Create services support our most complex and vulnerable pupils, with highly differentiated and personalised holistic therapeutic education programmes developed for each pupil focusing on development milestones. When they are ready, we aim for pupils to step down from Create into one of our main school, our Sixth Form, or into mainstream provisions.
