Reporting to the
Assistant Director, Inclusive Education & Learning, you will play your part
in moving our education service forward, leading the development of
collaborative approaches that focus on the holistic needs of each child in the
context of their families and communities, creating whole system approaches
that tackle some of our more intractable challenges around outcomes, attainment
and behaviour.
You will provide
drive and leadership to our SEND strategy, ensuring that to all our children
and young people, including our most vulnerable, start well. You will lead and
develop the Council’s high quality and effective SEND strategy and manage the
SEND Service including statutory assessment and review and the management of
low incidence support services.
You will lead and
champion inclusive practice for children and young people with SEND (Special
Educational Needs & Disability), including working closely with school
leadership teams to further develop and enhance their SEND offer.
We are looking for a highly
motivated, energetic person with great interpersonal skills and the capacity to
forge first class relationships and effective multi-agency working. You will be
passionate about providing excellent services for children with SEND,
determined that all children should have the best start in life, and that means
access to high quality education for all.
In Bolton, we have set
a clear direction of travel; in partnership we are forging ahead to 2030 with a
vision of a town and borough built on strong cohesive communities, successful
businesses, and healthy residents. Our big aspiration for our children and
young people is that they all have access to high quality education, reaching
their full potential and leading happy and fulfilling lives. You will be
central to the delivery of this aspiration.
We are making good
progress. Ofsted have given our Social Care services a Good rating. Our health
and social care integration is moving forward with pace and purpose. And we are
successfully remodelling our finances to protect the sustainability of our services
to children and young people.
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting
the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to
share this commitment. A DBS check is therefore
required for this post.
This post is a designated customer facing role
under the fluency duty and requires a specified level of spoken English as per
the person specification.
This
organisation has signed up to the Greater Manchester Continuous Service
Commitment. That means we will recognise your continuous or ‘unbroken’ service
in any Greater Manchester local authority or NHS organisation, Transport for
