Millthorpe School is looking for an enthusiastic and motivated individual to join our team as an Attendance Assistant to support our Attendance Manager with all administration regarding student attendance. You will liaise with students, families and staff to improve the attendance across the school.
The successful candidate will need to be confident and able to communicate effectively with students, parents/carers, staff and external agencies as required.
