Further details about the role
There are times in school where staff and students may be absent. The main purpose of this role is to ensure support to the faculty lead when a member of the teaching staff is absent from school. The role is to ensure the behavioural ethos of the school is maintained, support is given to students in the lesson including introducing the work set, touring the class to provide feedback in line with our teaching and learning objectives and to provide feedback to the absent member of staff and faculty lead about the progress made in the lesson.
When not used to cover lessons, the SSASS will work with the Attendance Officer to support families to send children to school more regularly, for example through making phone calls home. The SSASS may make home visits on the direction of the Attendance Officer or work with other agencies to support attendance in school.
