Role Responsibility

Term Time Only - 39 weeks per year

Virtual School Kent supports children and young people in care to achieve and contribute positively to their communities now and in the future. We are a diverse and rapidly developing organisation who value our children’s voices in shaping our policies and services.  This role needs somebody who can;

- be part of a team to gather important attendance data for our young people in care.

- ensure that critical data on attendance is available to support young people’s education outcomes.

Are you;

- motivated, supportive and have good administration skills?

- able to work independently and as part of a team?

- Able to work to weekly deadlines?

- flexible and adaptive to the needs of the service you provide?

This is a term-time only contract, working 4 days a week (29.6 hours) and, due to current staff coverage, you will be required to work on Friday as one of the days. 

You will work from home and all equipment will be provided to allow this to happen.  Your office base will be Brook House, Whitstable, or Worrall House, Kings Hill, West Malling and you will occasionally be required to attend either office for meetings, to work as a team or when requested to by your line manager.
