Description

Thirteen individual contracts awarded for the provision of SEND regional advisory support, following the completion of a competitive bidding process under the Educational and Children's Social Care Professionals (ECSC) Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS). The primary role of the Adviser will be to provide a clear and sustained focus on improvement with individual local authorities where there are serious concerns about SEND strategy or operational delivery. These will usually have been identified through the local area SEND inspection system or other diagnostic work. The SEND Adviser will support a portfolio of designated local authorities in the allocated region in continuing to develop and implement robust, realistic and achievable plans for delivery of their SEND services. There will be a particular focus on those areas which have been judged by Ofsted and CQC to require a Written Statement of Action (WSoA), where serious concerns continue to be identified following a Revisit and/or where concerns are identified with regards to their ability to function sustainably. Advisers will be expected to align support provided with the outcomes and recommendations of the SEND Review. Commencing 1st April 2022, an Initial 12 month contract worth up to a maximum of £90,000 has been awarded to each of the 13 appointed advisers, with the option of up to a further 24 months in contract extensions.
