School Administrator — School Secretary, Office and Admissions Roles, UK Schools and Academy Trusts

UK schools and academy trusts hire school administrators and school secretaries to run the school office: pupil records, attendance, admissions, reception, parent enquiries, ordering and invoices.

Common requirements

• A good standard of general education and office experience
• Confidence with common office software, including spreadsheets
• An enhanced DBS check before you start
• The right to work in the UK, because school secretary roles cannot be sponsored on the Skilled Worker visa

Before you apply

Note: pay, hours and hiring decisions are set by each school, academy trust and local authority — not by JobGader. Many jobs are term-time only, so check the actual salary as well as the FTE salary.
