Telford & Wrekin Council is advertising for more volunteers to join the Independent Appeal Panel dealing with primary and secondary school admissions and exclusion reviews. It is a requirement that the Local Authority’s School Admission Authority provides arrangements for appeals against decisions not to allow a child to attend a school or regarding a decision to exclude a child from a school within Telford and Wrekin.

The role

Admission panels comprise of three members to hear and determine appeals by parents who are not happy with the decision made about their child’s school placement. The panel is independent of the education authority and draws on a pool of lay and independent members to sit on particular appeals. This is an essential role that provides impartiality of decisions for parents and children in Telford and Wrekin.

Membership of the panel comprises of:

- People who have experience in education, who are acquainted with educational conditions in the local authority area, or who are parents of registered pupils in school. This can include current or previous head teachers, teachers, governors or parents

- Lay people, someone without personal experience in the management of any school or provision of education in any school except as a school governor or in another voluntary capacity.

We are a charity working with adults with learning disabilities and autism. We are about to move out of our traditional day centre into the community based at our new hub at Blists Hill Museum.

It’s a brilliant venue but in need of some TLC. Could you help the adults we support as they turn this building into an exciting and vibrant hub?!

Can you garden, paint or bake,do you have wood working skills or maybe you’re an artist who could help with a mural?

If you would like to volunteer in a brilliant new community project please get in touch for more details!

AFC Telford is looking to recruit more volunteers to help on match days at the Telford Ground.

Would you like to be part of a friendly team of volunteers, and can you spare a few hours on Saturdays and sometimes during the week, for home games only?

Not every game requires a full turnstile crew and there are occasions when we need people to cover illness etc. for our regular staff; if you can’t commit to every game don’t worry, once we have a full team, others can cover you once in a while so we can be flexible.

Are you the right person for the role?

AFC Turnstile Operators

The role is very simple – you are based in the turnstiles, provided with a scanner on a mobile phone, and all we ask is that you use the camera function (which is linked to the relevant ticket checking software) to check tickets as fans arrive – it is that easy!

You would be required from 13.30 to 15.15 on Saturdays and 18.15 to 20.00 for mid-week games when we play at home.

The bonus is that if you wish to stay and enjoy the game when your turnstile closes, you get free entry - or if you prefer to go home that is fine too.
