About the Role
An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the Early Years SEN Inclusion Team as a Portage Home Visitor. The role is to provide a home teaching service for a caseload of children with severe and complex additional needs and their families, using the Portage model where partnership with families and multi-agency working is central.
