We need our children and young to be engaged in their learning and confident to access the opportunities available to them. Your own actions will be varied and will require determination and tenacity to secure the best outcome. You will provide direct advice, support and training to a range of professionals and our cohort. There will be differences and complexities in situations so you will need to be creative and innovative to ensure the best next step is identified and taken. You will be managing information from different sources to ensure that information is up to date and readily available; responding to general enquires and providing specialist advice.There will always be ‘change ahead’ and in this you will be surrounded by creative and child centred colleagues.
