About The Service
This vacancy is only available to employees of Cardiff Council including Cardiff Works and Agency Workers currently engaged with the Council.
An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the Inclusion Service Support Team, in the Education Inclusion Service. This new team will be responsible for delivering a range of business support functions for the various teams within the Inclusion Service.
The Education Inclusion Service comprises a range of services responsible for improving outcomes for children and young people with special educational needs (SEN), which in future will be known as additional learning needs (ALN). Services include educational psychology, specialist teaching, inclusion officers and the casework team, which coordinates statutory assessments and issue statements of SEN. The services work with schools and other education settings to support the identification, assessment and support for learners with SEN/ ALN.
From September 2021, the service will be working with schools and other partners to implement the statutory ALN Code, which will replace the SEN Code of practice for Wales. This is a significant change management process, introducing a more inclusive, child-rights based approach, as part of the Welsh Government ALN Transformation Programme.
About the job
In this role you will be responsible for development and maintenance of core data and management information systems within the Inclusion Service.
You will prepare high quality management and performance information for senior managers, Welsh Government and staff teams as required, ensuring the quality and reliability of data being used across the service and directorate.
You will be required to maintain confidentiality at all times and build effective working relationships with support teams across the Education Directorate.
What We Are Looking For From You
We are looking for a highly organised, ‘can do’ individual with excellent data management skills, and experience working under pressure and to strict deadlines. You will need to work effectively as part of a team and be flexible and adaptable to meet the changing needs of the service.
