Student-facing Support Staff (SfSS) induction
After reviewing Oxfordshire's self-assessment on workforce growth and early support programs, we surveyed school leaders and student support staff.
We wanted to learn about the hiring and staff retention challenges schools face. We created Student-facing Support Staff (SfSS) guides and an induction package based on these findings.
These resources aim to enhance staff members' ongoing professional growth.
