Cambridgeshire County Council and Peterborough City Council to support SEND services with IMPULSE Nexus

Lucy Sweatman, Education Programme Manager for Cambridgeshire County Council and Peterborough City Council said: “We’re looking forward to working with IMPULSE Nexus. Most importantly, the new system means we can increase the quality of the service we offer to children and families, enabling both authorities to improve their SEND processes, with input from all agencies into each child’s plans and provision. It will also make the whole process more efficient, bringing everything to do with SEND into a single view. This means we will be able to help children and young people with SEND in a more collaborative way, driving and enhancing the partnership working between schools, professionals, authorities and parents. This will make the process of recording outcomes and requirements much more straightforward, enabling us to act more swiftly and efficiently.” 

IMPULSE Nexus is made up of several modules, of which local authorities can use as many as they need to support their education services. Based upon an interoperable framework, IMPULSE Nexus modules can integrate with other services and providers to offer a joined-up view of each child and service. 

“We’re delighted that Cambridgeshire County Council and Peterborough City Council have both chosen IMPULSE Nexus SEND solutions to support their ongoing work in this vital area,” says Phil Lucy, Director of CACI’s Children and Young Person’s division. “By providing a fully auditable trail of activities, with the ability for all stakeholders to record information, IMPULSE Nexus will help both authorities to enhance their SEND processes and provide efficient and effective support to those children needing their services.”
