The SEND Service is responsible for managing the statutory functions involved in educational, health and care needs assessments and maintaining all Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs), whilst working collaboratively with the child or young person and their families, the educational setting and all other professionals involved.Preparing for Adulthood (PfA) Coordinators manage the Education, Health and Care (EHC) Plan process to ensure that young people with SEND aged 14-25 receive appropriate assessments, services, and provision.  Coordinators are responsible for a caseload as defined by the Service Manager and have prime responsibility for coordinating the entire process with families to create an EHC Plan. This will include presenting requests to the appropriate Panels, coordinating assessments from other agencies, and drafting and finalising the EHC plan with families.  As part of this process the coordinator will be expected to act as a professional exemplar in carrying out all duties with a ‘can do’ attitude and continue to improve customer satisfaction levels for the service.
