This opportunity covers the Regions Group and SEND Digital Portfolios which are made up of the following areas of work:

Intervention - supporting the department to intervene in failing schools, academies and or academy trusts.

Free Schools Programme - Enabling the creation of good new Free Schools in areas of need.

SEND - The SEND programme supports the achievement of the third group priority. It is based on two strands of work - the development and maintenance of the SEND Framework / toolkit and the delivery of the digital elements of the Delivering Better Value (DBV) major project.
