I build safe, ambitious online alternative provision for pupils with SEND and SEMH needs.
What I'm looking for
I'm building safe, ambitious provision for pupils who need education to work differently. My work across Targeted Provision and Insight Wellbeing Services combines remote SEND tutor quality, safer recruitment and therapeutic mentoring for young people experiencing anxiety, trauma, disengagement and complex needs.
At Northfield School & Sports College, I coordinated education and pastoral support for pupils with SEND, SEMH, behaviour, attendance and engagement needs. As Deputy DSL, I assessed safeguarding information, coordinated escalation pathways, liaised with LADO and MASH, and supported colleagues to maintain a consistent, relational approach.
I also bring programme leadership from Tennis World and formal quality assurance from NCFE external moderation. I use evidence, clear records and trusted relationships to strengthen safeguarding, re-engagement and remote alternative provision.
