Are you looking to develop your career into data management? 

This role will mainly focus upon maintaining and updating our schools management information system (SIMS), as well as providing general administrative and reception support. It is a varied role, but one which does requires strong IT skills and experience.

We are a new secondary school and from September 2017 we will grow to 350 pupils in Years 7 & 8. We anticipate that as the school grows we will have a future need for a role which focuses solely on data management and so are looking for a candidate who can demonstrate and show the potential to be considered for this. We anticipate this need will arise when we commence exams and as student capacity increases.

Whilst SIMS experience is not required, transferable experience of using and managing large scale databases is essential - ideally within an IT environment.  

With your solid IT background you will navigate and exploit all areas of SIMS for maximum gain, from creating template reports, bulk entry of data to mail merge functionality. 

As well as maximising the system’s potential, you will also lead on data entry particularly around admission/assessment periods. You will have an aptitude for fast and accurate data entry, with an eye for detail. 

You will ensure data is routinely cleansed and validated and produce Census outputs for DFE, as well as supporting the annual admissions data transfer. Additionally, you will create system templates for data capture, maintain and update the assessment area of SIMS and produce mark sheets to meet the data collection needs of the school.  

The role will also involve a range of administrative activities and the provision of first class customer service on our school reception.

We are looking for someone who has a flexible, friendly approach to their work, an aptitude for working with databases, a curious, resilient and problem solving approach to challenges/new situations and strong customer service skills when supporting both internal and external customers.

To apply click ‘Apply Now’. Please ensure your supporting statement field is no longer than 1000 words and provides an explanation of any periods where you have not been in education, employment or training. It is your opportunity to tell us a little bit about yourself, why you are attracted to this post and any other details which you think are relevant. CVs are not accepted.

Closing date: 20 May 2017. Applications will be reviewed as they are received.

Bohunt School Wokingham is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young students and expects all staff to share this commitment. The successful applicant will need to undertake an Enhanced DBS check.

Our vision is that the highest expectations, an ethos of ‘enjoy, respect, achieve’, unparalleled opportunity and highly effective teaching combine to develop students who are ‘game-changers’.

Would you like to be part of a school that empowers its students to be game-changers? This is a rare and exciting opportunity for an ambitious and imaginative candidate to join us in our stunning learning environment.

Our ethos of ‘enjoy  respect  achieve’ underpins everything that we do. We give students unparalleled opportunities through an outstanding curriculum offer which is enriched by an extensive co-curricular programme. All students make excellent progress with their academic studies at our school, with staff building strong relationships and knowing every child as an individual. In 2026, 84% of students achieved Basics at grade 4, 72% at grade 5+ and 40% of all the grades awarded were 7-9.

These academic outcomes are balanced with wellbeing and pastoral support which secures exceptional personal development. We are leaders in outdoor education with an outdoor classroom, the Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme running for all students and regular Big Expeditions to wilderness locations running alongside a variety of other trips at home and abroad. These core values help our students flourish throughout their school career, and on into later life.

We have exceptionally high expectations of learners and our staff are free to teach in a disruption free environment where students focus on learning and show very positive attitudes. Staff are extremely proud of the school and appreciate its focus on collaboration, equality and supporting workload. Staff also benefit from high-quality profressional development, with many choosing to continue their career progression within our school.

Our school opened its doors in 2016 and has grown substantially into an oversubscribed school, with 1450 students on roll. This includes the newly opened Bohunt Wokingham Sixth, which will cater for 300 students, allowing us to see our students through to 18. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to play an active part of the development of the school as it grows, with rich opportunities for professional and career development both within the school and across the wider Academy Trust.

We are part of the supportive and innovative Bohunt Education Trust, a MAT with nine secondary schools. We may be separated geographically, however, all BET schools share the same vision and values. We believe as a trust, we are stronger together. We believe that children and adults should enjoy learning and life in school. We believe that response of self and others, and doing the right thing, are fundamental to schools and in bettering society. We believe every child should have the same chance to achieve; so that they have a life of choice and opportunity.

Potential candidates are always welcome to visit the school to discuss the role and gain a sense of our educational ethos and culture.
