Data and Information Officer.

Applications are welcome from colleagues able to offer the following skills/ experience:

The Acorns School has an exciting opportunity for a dedicated and enthusiastic person to co-ordinate the data and Management Information Systems (SIMS), taking a leading role in planning, development, design and monitoring of these within the school. The role involves being part of the school business team, reporting to the School Business Manager.

The school is situated in pleasant surroundings and employs 28 staff. It serves the West Lancashire district and occasionally pupils from outside that area. The school is commissioned by the local authority to provide an education for the following categories: pupils attend the school as a result of permanent exclusion or for medical needs on the advice of a hospital Consultant or CAMHS professional. The school is commissioned by local mainstream secondary schools to support pupils who may be at risk of exclusion or who are having difficulties in school for a variety of reasons. Acorns also takes young people on roll who are unable to access a mainstream school for other reasons and this usually includes being new to the area, returning from home education and pupils in year 11 unable to find a school place. Throughout the year, the pupil roll increases and groups are subject to change.

The ideal applicant would need to be a positive, flexible and resilient individual who easily adapts to change and is a good team player always willing to support colleagues and share expertise. Applications are particularly welcome from candidates who have experience of working in a similar environment. However, if you believe you have the right skills and mind-set please do not hesitate to apply indicating how your strengths can assist the school in moving forward. CPD is given the highest priority and new staff are mentored by established colleagues.

It is strongly advised that you visit the school as you will be able to see its clear strengths and facilities. Please contact Debbie Williams School Business Manager to arrange to visit.
