The Governors of The Hollies School are seeking to appoint an experienced School Support Officer as soon as possible.
The Hollies School is a happy, caring, and busy special school catering for pupils aged 4 - 11 with autism spectrum conditions, who have significant sensory, social communication and learning needs.
We are committed to providing the best possible learning environment and The Hollies’ School curriculum is carefully planned, shaping each pupil’s provision around their individual needs as autistic learners.
Together with families, we can ensure that our children have the skills and knowledge to manage everyday life as independently as they can and to lead happy and successful lives.
The pupils are at the heart of everything we do here at the The Hollies School. Our aim is to enable all pupils to flourish.
We are looking for an enthusiastic person with excellent communication skills for this exciting and demanding role. Are you an organised, proactive individual with a passion for supporting a thriving educational environment? We are seeking a dedicated School Support Officer to join our team, delivering high quality administrative support within our school community.
The ideal candidate will bring strong organisational skills, a warm and caring professional approach with a commitment to upholding our schools’ values whilst understanding the needs of our pupils and their families.
The successful candidate should be willing to learn on the job as part of the Administration Team as well as the wider teams within school to complete a variety of tasks.
There will be opportunities to grow within the role.
