Job Introduction

As an Education Welfare Officer, you’ll be on the frontline of supporting children, families, and schools.

You'll work in partnership with schools, families, the community and the Local Authority assessing for and proceeding with statutory action when all other routes of support have been exhausted. With a strong safeguarding focus, you’ll identify barriers to attendance, offer practical solutions, and help fulfil statutory duties that keep children safe and engaged in learning.

Every child deserves the chance to thrive in school. Our Attendance & Inclusion Team champions this mission, ensuring children across Staffordshire can access a positive, consistent education.

We have one opportunity for an Education Welfare Officer who will be based within one of Staffordshire's four neighbourhoods. (There will also be an expectation to work across other areas of the county when required). Staffordshire Place 1 is the designated base; however, alternative work locations can be discussed.

This role is not term time only.

In this role you will directly influence the wellbeing, safety, and educational outcomes of children and young people.

Main Responsibilities

You will:

Support statutory action to improve irregular attendance, including issuing penalty notices, facilitating consultation meetings, and preparing cases for court under the Education Act 1996 and Children Act 1989.
Contribute to key statutory duties around Elective Home Education, Children Missing Education, School Attendance Orders and Section 19.
Hold targeted support meetings to help schools boost attendance and tackle persistent absence.
Present at termly district meetings to share best practice with schools across Staffordshire.
Play an active role in safeguarding—contributing to child protection and child in need plans, and working closely with Early Help partners.
Manage duties relating to child entertainment and employment licences.
Maintain accurate records and produce high-quality assessments and reports.
Grow your expertise in specialist areas of practice.

The Ideal Candidate

You will have:

Significant experience in education, welfare work, or direct support with children and families.
A minimum NVQ Level 3 (or equivalent) in working with children and families.
Confident understanding of education legislation, safeguarding and multi-agency collaboration.
Empathy and insight into challenges such as mental health, substance misuse, domestic abuse or poverty, and how these impact attendance.
Excellent organisation and communication skills to manage your own caseload and produce clear, accurate reports.
The ability to work both independently under pressure and collaboratively as part of a team.
A commitment to equality, inclusion, and children’s wellbeing.
Strong IT skills and confidence maintaining detailed professional records.

Previous experience of attendance is preferred but not essential.

In your application form, please evidence how you meet the shortlisting criteria in the person specification and that you have an understanding of a Education Welfare Officers role.

If you want to speak to a current Education Welfare Officer to talk more about the role, please do get in touch with Keith Mellor / Hayley Tonks via email at [email protected] or [email protected]

Interviews will be held on Wednesday 12th August 2026 at Staffordshire Place 1.

Our Recruitment Process: We anonymise applications during shortlisting to ensure only relevant information is considered. Please complete your application fully, especially the supporting statement, to highlight what you’ll bring to the role.
