We are seeking to appoint an articulate and approachable Family Liaison Officer to join our pastoral support network. It is a fantastic opportunity to join an established team that offers an empathetic and nurturing approach to supporting our young people. Pastoral care is pivotal to the success of our students, and we are proud of our positive relationships with parents and carers. This post is suitable for colleagues with experience in pastoral care and liaison with agency workers associated with student and family support. It is an exciting opportunity for a dynamic, ambitious and energetic individual who has a personable nature and can relate to our families’ needs and difficulties. Queensway is across two sites – the North site in Hadley is a school for children with a diagnosis of Autism. The school has a PAN of 60 but due to demand for places always has additional students. It is a modern purpose, self-contained building on a lovely site with sensory and quiet rooms as well as a Sports Hall and good outdoor spaces. Queensway North has achieved Autism Accreditation from the National Autistic Society, and our skills and strategies are worthy of their award. The school itself then ‘leads’ on Autism training both with the Local Authority and some external organisations. The south site, in Dawley, has quiet rooms, teaching spaces and an excellent purpose-built skills centre for practical work which is where our new provision for motor vehicle is to be placed. Queensway South caters mainly for KS3 and KS4 students but on occasion we offer placements to KS2 students where appropriate. The PAN at South is 54 but is also consistently oversubscribed.
