The Disabled Childrens' team started work in March across Education, Health, Social Care with the DFE and the 'Centre for Systemic Social Work' (CFSSW) in a pilot to see if the principles of systemic thinking is beneficial to the process of the EHCP. This is linked to the ‘Outcomes Framework’ and development work with SEN.
They've received good feedback from the group and the DFE have agreed to fund further development work across their system, and further dates of face to face training for leaders and operational staff (see below for dates).
On the 20 September 2022 in city hall we are hosting the first workshop for all partners across Health, Education, Social Care to come together to work together under a systemic framework. If you would like to be part of shaping work in this area we would be delighted to hear from you. We are particularly interested in Head teacher and senior leaders joining this work, we have other work planned with operational leads (such as SENDCOs).
Please book, or for further information, please email the disabledchildren@bristol.gov.uk.
