SENDCo

Dear

future SENDCo,

We

are looking for a confident,

ambitious and thoughtful practitioner who wants to make a real

difference — not just maintain what already works. If

you believe inclusion belongs at the heart of a school (not filed away in a

policy), and you’re someone who is curious, reflective and keen to keep getting

better, then this might be the role for you. You’ll

lead SEND across the school — but this isn’t just about systems and paperwork.

You’ll shape provision, support staff, work closely with families, and stay

connected to the classroom through teaching.

Put simply: you’ll have real influence, and real

responsibility.
