Brent is a tremendously vibrant London borough where the iconic arch of Wembley Stadium dominates the skyline. Spanning both inner and outer London, it is a borough of huge contrasts in terms of its economic, environmental, ethnic and social make up. Brent’s diversity is evident to all who visit our borough and our long history of ethnic and cultural diversity has created a place that is truly unique and valued by those who live and work here.
&nbsp;
The council is pursuing a far-reaching transformation agenda that better meets the needs of our community so it is an exciting time to join us.
&nbsp;
The Post
Brent EPs work to a flexible model of service delivery that is rooted in consultation and the use of a wide range of tools and techniques to support our children, young people, schools, and parent/carers. We are passionate about providing every EP with a varied and stimulating range of work that makes best use of the unique skills and insights that our profession has to offer. &nbsp;
Our aim is to serve the needs of the most vulnerable children in our borough, as well as using our skills to address issues that concern larger numbers of CYP. &nbsp;We do this by targeting key issues through project work and the delivery of high-quality training to our colleagues in Brent schools and settings. &nbsp; Working with senior EPs, our dynamic team of Assistant EPs have devised and delivered a highly regarded programme of in-service training, making full use of technology, to reach as wide an audience as possible. &nbsp;We are proud of the fact that over 100 ELSAs have now been trained and are present in 60% of Brent schools; our annual ELSA conference has become the most attended education conference in the LA. &nbsp;
Our EBSA project created a Practice Framework for schools. &nbsp;Last year, the EPS set up and now leads on a multi-agency panel that makes decisions about support for children who are unable to attend school on mental health grounds. &nbsp;There is an ongoing programme of training for EBSA and other key topics, including Precision Teaching, ADHD in the Classroom and Literacy Support. &nbsp;There is dedicated EP support to our colleagues in the Brent Virtual School.&nbsp;
We work in collaboration with colleagues in the wider Inclusion Service, where the EPS sits and has a key leadership function. &nbsp; Across the service, there is a renewed commitment to develop our anti-racist and culturally sensitive practice. &nbsp;Serving a truly diverse population is one of the most rewarding elements of being an EP in Brent; we are committed to ensuring that our team reflects this diversity.
The Person
Brent is a service that is growing fast and there will be numerous opportunities for colleagues who wish to develop their skills and progress their career through our current and future service initiatives. &nbsp;The post will appeal to those who want the freedom to develop their individual style of practice and pursue areas of interest. &nbsp;You should also be keen for this development to be anchored within a strong team, where the actions of one colleague are of interest to all. &nbsp;We welcome applicants from current Year 3 TEPs.&nbsp; If you would like more information call 07436 704330 or email the PEP at&nbsp;<a href="mailto:frank.glennon@brent.gov.uk" target="_blank">frank.glennon@brent.gov.uk</a>&nbsp;
