As part of this service, your role will be to support schools and staff on teaching and learning strategies to ensure they can support individual children with social, emotional and mental health needs. This role will involve supporting schools with the use of the SEND Ranges, working in partnership with the setting and other agencies and services to ensure the best outcomes for children as well as monitoring the impact of additional support given.
