• As a Primary Admissions Officer for BELS, your daily work will be varied, fast paced and focused on delivering an excellent service to families and schools. You will manage school applications for children starting Reception Class ensuring they are processed accurately in line with the statutory framework and deadlines. You will respond to enquiries from parents, carers, schools and professionals via phone, email and in person, offering clear guidance and support.
