On September 19th, 2024, colleagues from Hertfordshire facilitated a Sharing Workshops to give colleagues from across the region the opportunity to hear how they were progressing on their improvement journey following their SEND inspection in July 2023. They talked through their ambitious transformation programme ‘Making SEND Everyone’s Business’ and covered the following topics:
- Workforce transformation at scale; with a focus on drawing our community into our workforce and valuing lived experience
- Building the Hertfordshire SEND Academy; professionalising the workforce and better support for our frontline professionals with a strong training and development offer
- Enhancing our Quality Assurance function to support and drive improved practice across the directorate
The event was well received and the feedback was extremely positive.
