SEND Inclusion Advisors

Cognus Limited is a Local Authority Traded Company, which is commissioned by the London Borough of Sutton to provide education services to early years providers, mainstream schools and specialist education settings in Sutton. Wholly owned by the local authority, we deliver a wide range of high-quality services to deliver excellent practice that improve the lives of children, young people, and families in Sutton and beyond.

Are you a SENCO, Inclusion Lead, specialist teacher or experienced SEND practitioner looking to make a wider impact?

We are recruiting multiple SEND Inclusion Advisors to join our new Experts at Hand (EAH) team, a key part of the Government's SEND Reform Programme designed to strengthen inclusion, build school capacity and ensure children and young people receive support earlier.

This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a brand-new team at the forefront of SEND transformation in Sutton. Working directly with schools, SENCOs and education leaders, you will help develop inclusive practice, coordinate support around schools, lead inclusion reviews and build confidence in meeting the needs of children and young people within mainstream settings. We are particularly interested in candidates with a secondary background but are also seeking additional primary focused posts and we would consider those who wished to work full time or part-time hours.

We're looking for passionate professionals who believe in inclusion, enjoy building relationships, and want to help shape a more joined-up and sustainable SEND system.

• Multiple opportunities available

• Be part of a new and innovative service

• Help shape the future of SEND support in Sutton

• Work alongside education, health and local authority professionals

• Influence practice across schools and settings

• Make a real difference to children, young people and families

If you're passionate about inclusion, early intervention and creating positive change, we'd love to hear from you. Join us and help every child thrive.
