Alongside our work with children and families, Bright SEN offers consultancy partnerships with schools, to strengthen and develop their inclusive practice.
With over 20 years’ experience in the education system, including extensive work supporting children with SEN across West Sussex, we offer expert, practical support to help schools improve and embed high‑quality inclusive provision.
From SENCo mentorship and training, whole‑school inclusive development, enhanced provision design, staff training, to one‑off case management, Bright SEN provides highly effective support tailored to your school community.
Why schools choose Bright SEN:
Some of our support models include:
SENCo Mentorship and Support
Is your SENco new to role or in the early stages of developing their career? With years of extensive and wide ranging SENCo experience, I work directly with SENCos and Senior Leadership Teams to guide and train them in the practical realities of effective ‘SENCo-ship’, the parts rarely covered in National or Local Authority training.
This practical, hands-on support builds confidence and strengthens systems to aid your SENCo in managing the ever increasing work load with skill, efficiency and clarity.
Freelance SENCo Support
Whether you need short‑term cover or targeted support, I offer flexible freelance SENCo services for whatever your school might be facing. This includes:
Enhanced Provision Development
Having led a highly successful Specialist Support Centre for 11 years, I am passionate about helping schools create effective, inclusive environments where children get exactly what they need.
We focus on environmental design and high‑quality teaching from qualified, experienced staff, rather than relying on “Velcro” learning‑support models.
Bright SEN supports schools to design, develop, and refine enhanced provisions that meet more children’s needs in the right setting.
Development of Whole school Inclusive Provision
Developing whole‑school inclusive practice is essential for every school’s long‑term success and has never been more timely with the changes to OFSTED and the proposed changes in the Government White Paper for Schools and SEN reform.
Bright SEN works directly with all members of your school community to build consistent, evidence‑informed inclusive approaches that ensure all children get what they need, whilst maintaining staff wellbeing as an optimum.
From whole school training, to 1:1 team teaching, we tailor our support to what your school needs, to ensure your SEN provision is effective, embedded and sustainable
Whole School / Locality Training
We provide bespoke training for whole staff teams or Locality groups on a wide range of SEN and inclusion topics, tailored to your school or locality’s needs and priorities.
