SEND Reforms Practice Lead

This is a very exciting role to lead SEND Transformation and drive forward our ambitious SEND Reform plan across Kingston and Richmond. The reforms will deliver lasting, system-wide  change, working in partnership with our schools, the SEND Service, parents and carers, children and young people, and Health colleagues.The first year priorities are to develop our innovative ‘specialist expertise at hand’ offer  through a multi-agency early intervention model and to strengthen inclusive, high-quality mainstream provision. You will play a pivotal role in shaping and delivering these priorities, working collaboratively  with school leaders and their teams, parents and carers, children and young people, and partner agencies. Building strong relationships and inspiring engagement across all SEND partners will be critical to success.You will lead the SEND Reform Team, ensuring high-quality delivery, robust performance  monitoring, and evidence-based evaluation of impact,  while reporting  progress to the DfE, stakeholders, and our SEND Partnership. If you are passionate about making a difference, thrive in complex partnership environments, and are committed to improving outcomes for all children and young people with SEND, this is an exceptional opportunity to lead transformational change.
