The Regional SEND Leadership team in the North East work to promote and celebrate the effective and exciting SEND practice across our region. The North East is a large geographic area with a huge amount of excellent practice and incredible SEN and SEND expertise already present and active within our schools and communities. Currently we are working to connect with and, where needed, develop professional networks to best support all schools in prioritising SEND within their practice.
From the densely populated major city of Birmingham, to the rural areas of Shropshire and Herefordshire, the West Midlands is a diverse region. Through our work so far, it is clear that there is a dedication to improve outcomes for learners with SEND across our region from families, schools, and professionals. We aim to build on existing effective practice for our population of pupils with SEND so that children experience success in their learning and parental confidence improves.
Our East Midlands SEND leaders are passionate about supporting all provision across the region to be ambitious, aspirational and inclusive by design. Our connectivity and partnerships with LA's, MATs, Opportunity Areas, Teaching School Hubs, mainstream and specialist settings support the sharing of knowledge and expertise across the system.
Whole School SEND's aim in the South West is to build our community of practice to meet the needs of children and young people with increasingly complex needs by strengthening the links between mainstream and specialist settings. We invite parents, carers, leaders and practitioners to contact us by becoming a member of Whole School SEND community and sharing good practice.
Join our team of dedicated and ambitious individuals. We are a passionate workforce, who strive to support education professionals, so that they have the opportunity to make a real difference to the lives and outcomes of children and young people with SEND.
