Outwood Academy Bydales is an 11-16 school located in the beautiful coastal village of Marske-by-the-Sea, close to the North York Moors National Park and with spectacular views of the coastline. We are extremely proud of our tradition of serving the families of the community of Marske and surrounding areas. Our recent Ofsted Inspection recognised the many strengths of the school as we secured judgements of Good across all areas. The report was extremely positive and had many highlights, including that we are 'an ambitious school with high standards', that 'Staff care deeply for pupils', that ' Pupils are happy and demonstrate industrious attitudes to learning' and that 'Pupils experience great success.

We are seeking to appoint an energetic individual who will be responsible for the operational and administrative support to promote whole school attendance strategies in order to improve attendance levels and reduce persistent absence, in line with academy targets under the supervision of the Attendance Manager/Education Welfare Officer. The ideal candidate will be solution focused, have excellent communication skills with the ability to motivate and engage our students and families. Home visits are required for this job role so you will require a current uk driving licence and use of your own vehicle.

We place students at the centre of everything we do, with a focus on creating a culture of success, a positive climate for learning, and increased student attainment, achievement and social and emotional development. You must possess the skills and determination to make a significant difference to the lives of our students and our commitment to putting ‘Students First: Raising Standards and Transforming Lives’.
