4 days ago
**Job title**: SEN Post 16 Casework Officer
**Salary**: £35,745 to £38,223 (pro rata for part time roles)
**Hours**: Various
**Contract**: Permanent
As a SEN Post 16 Casework Officer you’ll thrive on unlocking young people’s talent and potential by enabling their full participation in education, whatever challenges they face.
It’s not all about plans and processes, you bring creativity and passion to your work with young people and their families. You involve them in conversations and decisions and work productively with school leaders and other partners who share your ambition for all young people to live and learn to their full ability.
You’ll be a key team member within our Special Educational Needs Statutory Assessment and Provision (SENSAP) service. Our overarching goal in SENSAP is to enable children and young people with complex special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) to access education with all the support they need to fulfil their potential.
We are recruiting to 2 full-time roles and 2 part-time roles (15 or 22.5 hours per week).
Leeds children’s services are rated outstanding by Ofsted. We are committed to the ambition of Child Friendly Leeds and want Leeds to be a city where all children are safe, happy and healthy, do well at school, fulfil their potential and grow up to be active citizens with voice and influence.
Leeds City Council is one of the largest employers in the region with over 14,000 employees. We seek to recruit and develop talented individuals who embody our council values and ambitions.
**About you**
As a SEN Post 16 Casework Officer, you will bring to the role:
- a relevant degree or equivalent professional qualification, such as social work, youth work or teaching, or a proven track record in a similar role
- ability to analyse, interpret and clearly summarise professional reports from various sources
- reflective and restorative approach to continually improve practice and build positive relationships
- skills in mediation, negotiation and communication with the ability to handle conflict and deliver sensitive messages constructively
- good judgement about SEND and the appropriate provision for young people, with awareness of the SEND Code of Practice 2015 and knowledge of careers guidance work
- You will regularly have to travel around the city on school and home visits.
**About the role**
The role is integral to our Education, Health and Care (EHC) casework team. We work closely with the wider SENSAP service to ensure young people with SEND can achieve their life aspirations.
In SENSAP we take a forward-thinking, innovative approach to our statutory duty, which is to delegate high needs funding, support inclusive SEND practice in education settings and manage education, health and care assessments and plans. We fully engage children, young people and families in key decision making to help them understand their options and we work together to find the educational placement that best meets an individual’s needs.
As a SEN Post 16 Casework Officer you will work closely with young people and families, other practitioners and agencies to gather the insight you need to conduct an EHC assessment and, if appropriate, write an EHC plan. You will identify clear objectives and hold annual reviews to support each young person to make progress and prepare for adulthood.
The EHC team oversee provision and admissions for children and young people who have an EHC plan, at all levels from nursery to school and post-16, in both mainstream and specialist settings.
**What we offer you**
We take pride in offering the best employee experience, with benefits including:
- a competitive salary and annual leave entitlement plus statutory holidays
- membership of the West Yorkshire Pension Fund with generous employer contributions
- a clear career pathway and continuing professional development opportunities
- a range of staff benefits to help you boost your wellbeing and make your money go further
**How to apply**
**We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults.**
**We promote diversity and want a workforce that reflects the population of Leeds and the communities we serve. Leeds City Council is an Inclusive employer, ranked 70 on the Stonewall top 100 employers 2023 list. We are also an Age friendly employer, a Mindful employer and a Disability Confident leader.**

Employment is conditional on confirmation of the right to work in the UK - either as a UK or Irish citizen, under the EU Settlement scheme or having secured any other relevant work visa. If you do not have the right to work in the UK and the role does not meet eligibility for sponsorship, please consider carefully whether you meet the eligibility to apply.**
