DO YOU WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE? A REAL DIFFERENCE?

Join Oxfordshire County Council on an exciting journey towards Delivering the Future Together, our ambitious transformation programme which will enable us to be an employer, partner, and place shaper of choice. We’re seeking the right people who can help us get there while embracing our value of ‘daring to do it differently’, as we continue to strive to do better.
In our Children, Education & Families Directorate, we want every child to have the best possible education and with this goal in mind, we’ve set out to improve and transform our services.
We’re currently in the process of re-evaluating and restructuring our Specialist Education Needs and Disabilities (SEND) services, with the objective of advancing the educational outcomes for children and young people.
We’ve been consistently rated as “good” by Ofsted, but we are not content with that; we are ambitious and want to do even better!
Oxfordshire County Council is a financially stable local authority which is committed to investing in Children, Education and Families.
Together, we ensure that we have the resources we need to make a real difference to the people we support.

As part of this, we continue to invest in Special Educational Needs & Disabilities (SEND), with the growth of our four sub teams within the EHCP Casework Team:

• Assessment Team
• Early Years and Primary Team
• Secondary and Post 16 Team
• Tribunals, Resolutions and Compliance Tea

We’ve transformed the way we help our communities to get the best outcomes possible for every child and family we work with.
