About the Role
The Education Entitlement Service (EES) strives to deliver outstanding services for our customers, predominantly the children of Coventry, who may require access to education or alternative education provision. We ensure vulnerable children are appropriately supported; have a voice, which hopefully leads to their high achievement and excellent progress.The EES is made up of a diverse range of teams all working together to recognise, support and apply innovative solutions to address the growing issues in relation to trying to educate some of our most vulnerable pupils in schools. The Ethnic Minority Achievement Service (EMAS) supports newly arrived children in the admission process into Education and monitors Children Missing Education (CME). Officers may make home visits to investigate family circumstances, with special attention given to safeguarding concerns. Multilingual Assistants work directly with children in both primary and secondary schools, providing bilingual support for children who speak English as an Additional Language.
