Your responsibilities will include managing caseloads, coordinating assessments within statutory timescales, chairing person-centred meetings, drafting outcome-focused EHCPs, collaborating with education, health, social care and voluntary sector partners, attending annual reviews, supporting transitions, advising schools on SEND pathways, contributing to statutory decision-making, and maintaining accurate records in compliance with SEND legislation and guidance.
