SENCO Administrator

As a SENCO Administrator, you’ll help make your school run like clockwork. You’ll be involved in running the EHCP and other specialist SEN meetings, working in close collaboration with the SENCO. With your efficient, professional approach you’ll be responsible for scheduling meetings, accurate records, pupil files and the production of specialist reports including Education and Health Care Plans (EHCPs).
