For over 25 years, I have been passionately committed to supporting schools to improve outcomes for children and young people with SEND. Over this time, I have worked as a SENCo, a SEN Advisory teacher, a Local Authority School Improvement Officer for SEND and interim Education Development Officer for NASEN for whom I wrote guidance and delivered national training on the SEND Code of Practice. I am now an associate lecturer at the University of Northampton and work as an independent consultant specialising in school improvement for SEND. I have a successful track record of working with individual schools, Trusts and universities to improve outcomes for children and young people with SEND thorough consultancy, training, reviews and producing written guidance. I also support local authorities in reviewing and developing their strategy for identifying, making provision and improving outcome for CYP with SEND. I taught the National Award for SEN Coordination and now teach on the SENCO NPQ.
