We operate within the framework of a consultation model with an emphasis on solution-focused, person-centred and trauma informed thinking.   We have a history of multiagency working, and you will have a range of diverse opportunities to develop specialist areas of interest or work within existing projects as well as join strategic leading-edge groups.  Currently commissioned projects include Virtual School; REACH; Youth Justice Service; WISE (Critical Incident Postvention) Training; Nurture Project; EBSA; ELSA; Trauma Informed Training & VIG.  

Successful candidates will be joining a creative and highly skilled team that is well-regarded and valued by schools and services across Barnet.  You will benefit from a supportive leadership team committed to promoting the wellbeing of staff and work-life balance, ongoing training and development and practising in ways that are equitable, anti-racist and culturally responsive.   We have strong links with the Doctoral training courses and are committed to supporting Trainee Educational Psychologists on placement.
