'Staff morale is strong. Staff are unified and motivated'
'Staff say the headteacher and other leaders are 'genuine' in their attempts to lessen
workload and improve well-being' Ofsted January 2020

Northfield School is a large 11-16 school and specialist sports college. We are an ambitious and inclusive school with state of the art facilities and interactive technology in a well-resourced newly refurbished main building and a separate new Year 7 school.

Following an inspection in January 2020, Ofsted judged that the school continues to be good and acknowledged all the positive work being undertaken to improve it further. This is a great time to join the school.

We wish to appoint a highly motivated Family Support Worker who will work in close partnership with parents, carers and students in a school context. The successful candidate will provide non-judgemental support to families, empowering them to access support services and educational opportunities and overcoming barriers to learning and attendance.

The successful candidate will have experience of working with families under stress and experience of delivering group based interventions. The ability to effectively manage own case files and workload is essential.

We can offer you:

- an enthusiastic, talented and supportive team
- a newly refurbished and superbly resourced teaching and learning environment
- excellent opportunities for CPD
- a staff health and well being programme
- a warm, friendly and positive working environment where everyone is valued

An official application form and further details are available on our web page www.northfieldssc.org and should be returned to HR@northfieldssc.org by 12 noon on the closing date.

Alternatively, applications are also accepted by post (FAO Catherine Frost). NB: we do not accept CVs.

Visits to the school are welcome by appointment; please call Catherine Frost or email HR@northfieldssc.org
