Supporting you to overcome barriers to learning.
Are you struggling to ensure that your SEND provision is as effective as possible? Have you found it difficult to recruit/retain a SENCo? If so, we can help. As part of the Code of Practice, all schools are required to employ a named Special Educational Needs Coordinator to ensure that children with SEND are supported to reach their full potential. Currently, we face many challenges with staff workload and recruitment and already busy school leaders often find themselves as SENCo with little or no time to manage the demands of such a significant role. At Entrust, we have a dedicated team of highly qualified and experienced specialist teacher consultants, ready to support you with SEND provision at both strategic and operational levels.
We can provide a nominated SENCo who can support the school remotely to provide cover or support a new SENCo to find their feet in their new role. Whatever your needs, our experienced staff can step in immediately to provide you with a bespoke package of support. We can cover long-term contracts, periods of leave or provide support for you when the unexpected happens.
We can support with:
SEND strategy providing advice and guidance
Education, Health and Care planning processes and virtual annual reviews
Virtual staff training
Policy writing
Provision of support prior to/post OFSTED or internal inspections/reviews
