Lead SEND Practitioner

We are looking to appoint an exceptional Lead SEND Practitioner (LSP) from October 2024 to join our Additional Educational Needs Faculty. LSPs lead on an area of SEND from the Code of Practice. This post will focus especially on students who experience barriers to learning through their communication and interaction, or social, emotional and mental health needs.

The successful candidate will already be a highly effective teaching assistant, with experience of making impact on the progress of children with SEND in their current setting. You will have an excellent understanding of the ways that accurate assessment, planned support and teamwork all help students overcome their SEMH needs.

You will have a track record of enabling SEND students to succeed. You will perhaps have reached a ceiling in your current role, and will be looking for the next challenge in your career as a SEND professional.
