Advisory Board

Specialist SEND expertise, applied to measurement.

The Elevate SEND Advisory Board brings SEND expertise, education leadership and professional development experience to the design of the measurement framework. Its role is to keep what we measure grounded in real practice.

Framework design

Reviewing the dimensions Elevate measures and how they relate to real SEND practice in schools.

Practice credibility

Checking that assessment content reflects the realities of classroom, SENCO and leadership practice.

Interpretation

Advising on how results should — and should not — be interpreted by leaders.

Ethical guardrails

Ensuring measurement supports professional development rather than individual performance management.

Membership

Appointments in progress.
