Full Job Description

SENDIASS services are part of the Children's Services branch of Polaris. Hampshire SENDIASS provide timely, confidential and impartial, information, advice and support for parents, carers, children and young people with special educational needs or disabilities (SEND). Hampshire SENDIASS' aim is to ensure that children and young people with SEND and their families are empowered to play an active and informed role in their education. Requirements,

  • Provide individual support to a caseload of children and young people with SEND and/or their parents. Common topics on which support is provided are: EHCP application, SEND tribunals, attendance issues, social care provision, exclusions and SEN support. Example of support include: explaining documents, co-writing applications, attending meetings or mediation with the customer, monitoring deadlines on the customer's behalf, supporting or representing the customer at any stage of the SENDIST appeal process.
  • Help customers to have clear expectations of your role by using 'What to Expect' (eligibility criteria) and outcomes documents to agree the purpose and boundaries of the support you provide.
  • Explain and refer to relevant SEND legislation and policy when providing advice or support (e.g. Children and Families Act 2014, SEND Code of Practice 2104, Equality Act 2010, Care Act 2014, SEND Regulations 2014, SEN Support Guidance)
  • Spend time understanding the barriers customers face. Identify and advocate for things that will enable them to engage with SEND services e.g. translation services, accessible forms, specific communication provision, emotional support. Signpost to, and engage these services as required.
  • Proactively support children, young people and/or their parents to self-advocate as much as possible. Coach and encourage them to take control and complete some tasks themselves, even where you think you may be able to do so faster or better.
  • Work at least 1 advice shift per week. This involves answering phone calls and emails to the Polaris SENDIASS helplines. Listen generously to parents, carers and young people who contact the helpline and providing information and advice that enables callers to self-advocate.
  • Make an accurate record of your advice and support. Continuously maintain database records including duration of contact with cases, individual case details, documents relating to casework.
  • Cultivate professional relationships with colleagues and stakeholders, including Local Authority SEN to achieve swift and positive outcomes for children and young people.
  • Contribute to the development of content and resources for the SENDIASS website and social media.

    We are looking for a SENDIASS Support Worker to join our friendly team based in Hampshire. The successful applicant will have a track record or personal experience in special educational needs, disabilities, education, health or social care. They will provide customers with confidential, impartial, one-to-one support on issues relating to SEND. They must be professional, approachable and outcome focused.
  • You will also require the following:
  • Have a qualification in SEND law or be willing to work towards achieving ISPSEA SEN Law Training at Level 1, 2 and 3 within the first year of employment
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
  • Personal or professional experience in a leadership position, a calm but assertive manner and an aptitude for managing complex conversations with a range of stakeholders.
  • Confident working with Outlook, Microsoft packages and databases
  • A full UK driving licence and access to your own car

    We are Polaris, one of the UK's largest leading communities of children's service providers.
  • Within the community, we have independent fostering and adoption agencies who have been passionately improving the lives of young people for over 30 years, as well as Leaving Care services, Education and bespoke children's services contracts. Our nurturing community works collectively to support the very best outcomes for each and every child in our care. We're ambitious for our children and young people, families and staff, and believe in their futures.

    Salary: £23,000 per annum Contract: Part-Time, permanent Hours: 35 hours per week (working pattern will be negotiated with your line manager) Base Location: This role is home based. You will be expected to travel to regular meetings within Hampshire.
