The Governing Body, children and staff of Bader Primary School are looking for a Parent Support Adviser who has a high degree of resourcefulness and emotional intelligence to work in this complex, demanding but rewarding role. The successful candidate will work in partnership with the school and vulnerable pupils' families to deliver a range of parenting support packages and encourage parents/carers to engage more with their child's learning. The candidate will need to work proactively with a range of stakeholders to support families and build effective relationships. This will include home visits, developing support groups, contributing to school based activities and linking with extended services. We are a happy, friendly school and passionate about providing quality learning opportunities for children.

We can offer:
- Wonderful children with aspirations to achieve

- An inclusive ethos where every member of the school community is valued
- A school community in which relationships are positive, expectations are high, and every single person is constantly learning
- An environment in which you will see people smiling, staff working together, people who care for one another, and people who respect and trust one another.
- A school dedicated to the personal and professional development of all staff
