The Governing Board of the Isle of Wight Education Federation is seeking to appoint a Safeguarding Officer to manage the referrals made through "My Concerns" in a timely manner, taking appropriate action where possible and referring more complex referrals to the Designated Safeguarding Lead.

The Isle of Wight Education Federation has been established to harness the very best education practice within two secondary schools and a large A Level sixth-form centre of almost 500 students.

The aim is to create a culture of continual improvement with increasingly successful outcomes for young people across the Island.


The Colleges are fast-paced, fun and caring environments in which to work and there are excellent opportunities for personal and professional growth and development.
