I have been very fortunate to have worked in Education for over 25 years, having worked in various educational settings and countries, both as a classroom teacher, and in the world of SEND. This is an area that is constantly changing and evolving. I am passionate about the belief that education should be transformative in a young person's life and be a vehicle for them to become productive citizens in our society. I have been clear in my philosophy, that early, high quality intervention, should allow children with disabilities to maximise their potential and access as much of the curriculum as possible. Currently in my role of Trust SENCo, I overview SEND across all Trust schools and ensure that young people with SEND have the correct level of support and provision to allow them to make progress and achieve their potential.
