Welcome to Team Doncaster
As a pivotal part of Team Doncaster, the council has been on a significant journey of improvement and transformation to become an employer of choice. In a challenging financial climate we are transforming children and young people's services and have ambitious plans to be the most child friendly borough in the country. This role forms part of a wider recruitment campaign to further strengthen the directorate and to continue to drive the positive momentum gained from our improvement journey to date. Anyone wishing to join us on our journey can look forward to a confident, ambitious organisation at an exciting time for the borough.
As Principal Educational Psychologist and as a member of the management team, you will act as a strategic commissioner to deliver improved outcomes for the people of Doncaster. You will ensure that improved outcomes for children and young people who are vulnerable or who have SEND are the constant focus of all aspects of service delivery. You will provide critical leadership to the Educational Psychology Service and take strategic leadership for an aspect of support for vulnerable children and young people (e.g. the management of out of borough placements) as required by the Assistant Director: Partnerships and Operational Delivery.
