## Description

The London Borough of Harrow has an excellent opportunity for an Educational Psychologist to start their career or develop skills within a supportive, progressive, and well-regarded service.

The Educational Psychology Service has developed a high level of commissioned work across the Borough, which has increased year-on-year. All of the mainstream maintained schools and academies in the Borough currently commission EP support from the Service. This enables – alongside statutory and other Local Authority core work – EP contribution to SEN Support level assessment and consultation, organisational support and intervention, and community-based projects.

Members of the team each link with a relatively small number of schools and other settings, with scope to provide a range of support within them. There remains a healthy balance of pre-statutory and preventative work, alongside a statutory role.

As a Service, we are now also playing a central role in SEND Reform activity, including shaping 'Experts at Hand' planning and delivery. This proves to be an exciting time in building upon our existing strong foundations of early intervention and capacity-building across our SEND landscape. We are always developing our practice, and in recent years have been strengthening our work around Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs.

We are a very positive, supportive and reflective team, which values individual strengths and interests as well as promoting team working and peer supervision. We offer thorough induction to all who join us as well as flexible working and continued professional development.

The Educational Psychology Service has a history of working very closely and collaboratively with schools and other professional partners including through co-location with: the S.E.N. Assessment and Review Service, Children and Young Adults 0-25 Disabilities Service, Community Learning Disability Team, Children’s Sensory Team, Autistic Spectrum Teachers, Portage Home Visitors, Virtual School, Youth Justice Service, and Early Support Service in Children’s Centres.
