In my capacity as an Attendance Intervention Officer, I held the responsibility of managing school attendance, with a particular focus on addressing persistent absences. I served as the primary point of contact for escalated attendance issues, collaborating closely with the senior leadership team and various external agencies such as the police, local authority, and other schools to devise effective strategies for resolution. This included formulating prosecution processes when necessary. I maintained active collaboration with the safeguarding and pastoral teams to ensure timely interventions aimed at reducing absenteeism. Additionally, I organized and facilitated multi-agency meetings involving stakeholders such as local authorities, social services, police, and parents to address attendance challenges comprehensively. Moreover, I organized and executed reward events to recognize and celebrate students with exemplary attendance and notable improvements, ranging from carnivals to outings, fostering a positive culture of attendance within the school community.

n my role, I am responsible for handling emergency and administrative calls, ensuring clear and accurate details of incident locations are obtained and correct resources are mobilized. This involves passing calls to other authorities or brigades and informing appropriate officers of incidents requiring attention. Additionally, I update incident logs comprehensively, possess knowledge of specialist equipment and resource requirements, and monitor fire cover availability in both counties. Liaising with incident crews to ensure resource adequacy, updating social media platforms, and coordinating multi-agency responses are also part of my duties. I excel in keeping people calm and providing lifesaving fire survival guidance during high-pressure situations. Moreover, I maintain accurate records of appliances, equipment, and officer availability, and oversee staffing resources during shifts and on-call periods. Furthermore, I undertake prevention-based activities, including organizing Safe and Well visits for community members in West Midlands.
