SEND & Inclusion Manager

Laura Thompson

I am responsible for overseeing and managing the provision of Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) support, and inclusion.

I lead in developing and implementing the Local Authorities SEND and inclusion strategy, policies, and procedures to ensure high-quality provision of support for all children and young people across our islands.  I provide support and guidance, and commission training for staff to ensure that they have the skills and knowledge needed to meet the needs of children and young people, including those with SEND.
