In 2020, Royal National Children’s Springboard Foundation (RNCSF) was appointed as delivery partner for the DfE’s Broadening Educational Pathways (BEP) scheme. The scheme’s ambition is to secure independent day and boarding school bursary placements and access to partnership activities for care experienced children. Since its launch more than 300 children in and on the ‘edge of’ care (“Care Experienced & Vulnerable Children – CEVC”) have been supported to thrive within over a hundred participating schools. Partnerships have been established with more than 80 local authorities.
We are looking for a Regional Coordinator on a fixed term contract of two years to work 0.5 FTE, 39 weeks per year, working out of Christ’s Hospital School. As regional coordinator you will need to combine excellent communication skills for stakeholder engagement with strong organisational skills to ensure operational management. You will work with Local Authorities and schools in the SE division of HMC to support care experienced and vulnerable children to access bursary support at independent day and boardign schools.
Reporting directly to RNCSF’s Senior Programme Manager (CEVC), you will work collaboratively with other Regional Coordinators and the charity’s core team to support effective operational delivery, accurate data management and smooth programme administration.
