A proven track record of improving outcomes, quality standards, and inspection readiness within specialist education settings.
Strong knowledge of SEND legislation, the SEND Code of Practice, EHCP processes, and safeguarding requirements.
Experience leading curriculum development, quality assurance, and professional learning strategies.
The ability to analyse performance data and translate insight into meaningful improvement plans.
Exceptional communication, influencing, and stakeholder management skills.
The ability to inspire, motivate, and develop high-performing teams.

Desirable:

Experience working within residential SEND, therapeutic, or complex needs provisions.
Knowledge of assistive technology and innovative approaches to inclusive education.
