As part of my daily duties I screen EHCP, Annual Review, School, Therapy and Nursing Reports to produce Initial Rationale Reports to include knowledge and understanding of the curriculum, therapy and nursing support needs. This is the start of the consultation process to be considered for a placement in the College.

I work closely with Assessments and Placements Coordinator and I am able to proactively lead on the organisation of centre assessments and attend face-to-face assessments, at the student’s current placement setting/OHC centres, or within the home environment for NEET students. Here I will obtain accurate information to support the young person in a detailed report.

I support those carrying out assessments to interpret EHCPs or other statutory documentation to ensure that outcomes are considered during the assessment process, and quality assure the content of written reports. I ensure appropriate IAG is provided to all prospective and attending students as raised through the assessment and admission enquiry process. I comply with the SEN Code of Practice and the timescales within it. I take part in preparation of accurate and detailed reports and lead on their presentation at panel meetings.

I work closely with parents, carers, local authorities and other professionals on a daily basis. I also assist Polish speaking parents and help with translating during the assessment process, open day events, Annual Reviews, parent's meetings and general enquiries. I ensure that appropriate emails are sent in a timely manner to support the smooth running of the consultation process within statuary deadlines.

I have very good computer skills including Microsoft Office, One Drive, Google Forms and using the internal College database.

I track my own work load and delegate to other teams. I am maintaining an accurate and up to date spreadsheet showing my 300+ screened cases per year.

I am used to managing change and conflicting workloads/deadlines on a frequent basis to ensure statutory obligations are met.

I am responsible to ensure accuracy and attention to detail is provided when identifying information from EHCP, Annual Review of EHCP, school reports, therapy and nursing reports to make sure a clear, formal rationale is produced. I make sure that all reports are accurate. I work as part of multidisciplinary team to ensure that students are placed on appropriate study programmes and at the appropriate academic levels, with adequate level of staff support and equipment.

I record all Information through internal student systems to produce statistical information relating to sustained destination data after leaving the College. I take part in developing and maintaining systems for quality monitoring and updating of student data supporting the development and improvement of use of the College Student Information System.

I work both as part of a team or independently, prioritising my own work and meeting deadlines. I deal with confidential information on a daily basis and always maintain information in a sensitive and confidential manner.

I produce detailed records of all telephone conversations with parents /carers. I am always happy to participate in appropriate staff development opportunities to keep up-date or develop new skills. I also assist with the admissions process including, but not limited to, sending out admission packs to new families of prospective pupils, and arranging college centre visits. I have skills and knowledge to step in when my colleagues are absent and work as part of the Assessments and Placement Team to support with the admissions process, college bursaries and any parent/carer queries.

I am a proactive member of the team to support with ‘in house’ paperwork changes, regularly reviewing screening paperwork to ensure it is up to date to make the consultation process as efficient as possible.
