Lead the Systems That Help Our School Thrive
Henry Tyndale School is an inclusive and growing special school supporting pupils aged 2–19 with complex needs across multiple sites. We are looking for a bright, proactive and solution-focused Senior Administrative Officer (Systems) to lead and coordinate the wide range of digital systems that support our pupils, staff, and leadership team every day.
This is more than just a data role – we’re looking for someone who brings energy, curiosity and a can-do attitude to everything they do.
Your Core Responsibilities Will Include:
- Managing and supporting the use of a range of core systems, including but not limited to:
- Arbor (MIS) – data accuracy, attendance, census, reports, permissions, third-party integrations
- CPOMS – safeguarding and pastoral oversight, access, support and reporting
- BlueSky – staff CPD, performance management, and whole-school training tracking
- Survey tools – such as Teacher Tapp, parental feedback, and internal audits
- Internal tracking tools – such as EHCP provision maps, intervention spreadsheets and resource allocation logs
- Leading data integrity, user access, compliance, and system improvements
- Supporting staff across the school with effective use of systems and identifying training needs
- Developing digital processes that reduce workload and improve consistency
- Ensuring all systems support high-quality, evidence-informed decision making at all levels of the school
Please note: this list is not exhaustive. You will work with an evolving suite of platforms – so adaptability and a willingness to learn are key.
We’re Looking For Someone Who:
- Has strong administrative and systems experience – ideally in a school, but other sectors welcome
- Can confidently navigate digital platforms and proactively learn new systems
- Is highly organised, methodical, and values accuracy and confidentiality
- Brings a solution-focused mindset, looking for improvements rather than problems
- Communicates clearly and lifts the energy of those they work with
- Can manage competing priorities, meet deadlines, and support others with warmth and professionalism
- Has experience with Arbor, CPOMS, or BlueSky – or a readiness to train in them
Why Henry Tyndale?
- Be part of a growing, values-driven SEND school making a real difference every day
- Join a team that respects, trusts and appreciates the work of admin professionals
- Shape how we use our systems to improve lives and reduce workload
- Enjoy access to ongoing CPD and leadership support
- Work with purpose in an environment where your upbeat, can-do attitude will thrive
