Join Our Team

At Seaview Primary School, our vision is to empower children to shape their own futures - to do more, know more, and be more. We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to access education, achieve their potential, and thrive.

We are seeking a committed, compassionate, and proactive Attendance Support Worker who shares our vision and is passionate about making a difference to the lives of children and families.

About the Role

The Attendance Support Worker plays a pivotal role in improving pupil attendance and supporting children and families to overcome barriers to education. Working closely with school staff, pupils, parents/carers, and external agencies, you will help ensure that every child has the best possible opportunity to succeed through regular school attendance.

This is a rewarding role that combines daily attendance monitoring and welfare support with longer-term casework, family engagement, and multi-agency collaboration. You will build positive relationships with families, identify concerns early, and implement effective interventions to improve attendance outcomes for our pupils.

Key Responsibilities

The successful candidate will:
Monitor and track daily attendance, identifying concerns at the earliest opportunity.
Undertake first-day contact with parents and carers regarding pupil absence.
Conduct home visits and welfare checks where appropriate.
Work directly with pupils and families to identify and remove barriers to attendance.
Develop, implement, and review attendance improvement plans.
Analyse attendance data to identify patterns and trends and inform targeted interventions.
Liaise with safeguarding leads, SEND staff, senior leaders, and external agencies to provide coordinated support.
Support safeguarding processes where attendance concerns may indicate wider welfare issues.
Maintain accurate records and prepare documentation to support attendance procedures and, where necessary, statutory interventions.
Promote a positive culture of attendance across the school community.

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone who:
Is passionate about improving outcomes for children and families.
Builds trusting and respectful relationships with pupils, parents, and professionals.
Demonstrates resilience, empathy, professionalism, and discretion.
Has experience working with children, young people, or families.
Has a strong understanding of safeguarding principles and practices.
Is organised, solution-focused, and able to manage a varied workload.
Is committed to inclusion, equity, and ensuring every child can access their education.
Fully embraces and promotes our vision of empowering children to shape their own futures: to do more, know more, and be more.

Why Join Seaview Primary School?

This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a dedicated and ambitious school community where relationships matter, children are at the heart of everything we do, and attendance is recognised as a key driver of achievement and wellbeing. You will work alongside a supportive team committed to making a lasting difference for children and families.

The ability to converse at ease with customers and provide advice in accurate spoken English is essential for the post.

Standard term time only pay is calculated on the basis of the following:

Number of teaching weeks - 38 weeks; plus
Public (bank) holidays - 1.6 weeks (8 days); plus
Individual leave entitlement - 5.4 weeks (27 days) or 6.4 weeks (32 days)

Individual leave entitlement is calculated on the length of continuous service. Employees with less than 5 years service will receive 27 days annual leave. Employees with more than 5 years service will receive 32 days annual leave. For example:

Calculation for employees with less than 5 years service:
38 weeks (term time) + 27 days (annual leave) + 8 days (public holidays) = 45 weeks pay, to be paid in 12 equal monthly instalments

Calculation for employees with more than 5 years service:
38 weeks (term time) + 32 days (annual leave) + 8 days (public holidays) = 46 weeks pay, to be paid in 12 equal monthly instalments

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and, if successful, you will need to apply for an enhanced DBS disclosure.

As a disability confident employer, we are committed to employing disabled people and people with health conditions making reasonable adjustments to support disabled applicants when required.

Location: Seaview Primary School and community-based work as required.
Seaview Primary School
The Avenue, Seaham, SR7 8PD

Closing date for applications is Sunday 16th August 2026
Interview Date: W/C 17.08.26
