ALP Schools is a chain of five “Good” schools. This is an exciting time as we are growing both in numbers of staff, pupils and in our positive reputation.
ALP Schools provide continuity in learning for pupils with Education, Health and Care Plans. The overarching purpose of our provision is to work with learners so that they are able to overcome the barriers to learning that they have previously encountered. We aim to offer flexible, structured and supportive needs led approaches. The nature of our work can be stressful, challenging, but equally as rewarding. Therefore, caring for staff well-being and promoting our people strategy is key to our success.
We are looking for a HR Generalist to support our vision. They will be responsible for overseeing and coordinating recruitment and performance management processes and advising staff and leaders on HR policies and requirements. They will also be monitoring and reviewing the school’s people strategy, to ensure staff are satisfied in the workplace. Until recently we have operated with one HR Generalist, but with continued growth we are looking to have one generalist working across our Midlands schools and one across our Kent schools. This opportunity is for our Kent base.
