[SENco-forum] Special Schools

There must be some kind of SENco as there will be masses of Statementing
paperwork to deal with as well as its correct implementation, including
liaison with parents and external specialists etc.,.

Hilary -- I've always understood that the post of SENCo only occured in
mainstream. All children in Special Schools have special educational needs,
so all teachers in special schools have similar responsibilities for SEN
delivery and coordination. And the management will be particularly concerned
with the coordination. The only need for having a SENCo, is when the SEN
children are a minority cohort, and there is a need for a focussed
organiastional set of strategies to ensure they a fully provided for, and
not overlooked of under-resourced, in a setting where their is a dearth of
expertise and understanding/empathy of the needs of SEN children.

Does anyone have a copy of a job description for a Senco in a Special School
setting that they would be willing to share?

I don't think the role is always clear in such settings.

Thanks.
