Are you an organised, proactive, and professional administrator looking to make a meaningful difference within a specialist educational setting?

We are recruiting for a School Administrator to join a dedicated SEN School in St Albans that supports children and young people aged 5–16 years with Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC) and additional needs including ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) and SEMH (Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs).

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced administrator to become part of a supportive school community where every member of staff plays an important role in helping pupils achieve their full potential.

About the School

This specialist SEN school provides a nurturing, inclusive, and structured learning environment for children and young people with additional needs. Through personalised support, specialist teaching, and a collaborative approach, the school empowers students to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

The administration team is central to the smooth day-to-day operation of the school, supporting staff, students, parents, and external professionals.

The Role

As a School Administrator, you will be responsible for supporting the efficient running of the school's administrative functions, including:

  * Managing reception duties and acting as the first point of contact for visitors, parents, and external agencies.
