About Chapter One Chapter One is a dynamic, growing charity with a vision of a world in which all children have the literacy skills needed to thrive. Our mission is to close the reading gap by providing children with one-to-one support at the time they need it most.

The results are transformative, boosting children's reading confidence and ability. From a school perspective, online reading volunteers provide direct, meaningful literacy support for up to 10 pupils per class. The programme is particularly suitable for communities where it might be challenging to find parents and other volunteers who can commit to physically visiting schools to boost reading. For more information please visit our website and watch this short video! About the Role Chapter One is seeking a Bristol Programme Manager who is an excellent communicator and is able both to motivate and support schools and teachers to implement our online reading volunteers programme, and also to ensure that the programme s impact and benefit to disadvantaged communities is maximised throughout the academic year.

Analyse and manipulate data (largely in Google sheets) to produce reports and identify trends. Create regular data summaries for all participating classrooms. Lead annual review meetings for senior leadership at participating schools. Support programme monitoring, evaluation and research as required. Coordinate in person and virtual school visits of volunteer teams to classrooms where necessary. This may include opportunities for Chapter One children to visit the office of the volunteers. Liaison with corporate partners as required. Weekly communication and status updates with Senior Programme Manager(s) and wider team. As a new school year approaches, secure commitments from returning schools and help find and target new schools to join Chapter One s programme.
