Send Register Template. No Child Is MissedDeveloping A Context Specific Send RegisterWhat Should The Send Register contain?What Else Should The Register contain?Who Is The Audience?Systems Around The RegisterMore from The Optimus BlogThere isn’t much written about the SEND register in many of the texts on SEND leadership it seems to be assumed that there will be a register but little detail about how to put it together Perhaps this is because it isn’t a particularly exciting topic to write about! Some SENCOs even criticise a focus on data and suggest that it is at odds with the personcentred approach that is required to be an effective SENCO but I would argue that without one an organised and strategic overview is not possible Once you have clear structures and systems in place the creative and personalised work can happen around this safe in the knowledge that no child has slipped through the net In some schools the SEND register seems to have disappeared and been replaced by data management systems such as SIMS but these are nowhere near as useful or userfriendly as a context specific SEND register designed on a simple Excel spreadsheet There are software packages that can create one drawing the information from whichever data management system a school uses but these can be expensive I’ve now developed SEND registers for four different schools and although they all contained the same basic information they were all tailored to the different contexts of the setting All that is needed is a person ideally an administrator who is proficient in Excel and a consistent approach Names of the studentsGenderSupport stage SEN support or EHCPNeeds Any other useful categories such as pupil premium looked after child young carer etc These are just some suggestions as this will be specific to each school contextYear group house group tutor group etcLinks within the spreadsheet to other documents for example a pupil passport or profile EHCP or SALT report – teachers love this because it’s quick and easy!Other useful data such as baseline assessment scores from CATs or MIDYIS I usually find that I need to consider at least two audiences You might need two spreadsheet tabs to communicate the relevant information to each 1 Teachers This is your primary tool for communicating student needs to teachers It can be a onestop shop for everything they need to know about the children they will teach Users should to be able to filter to find their class groups easily and see at a glance the children with needs and then click links to more detailed information such as pupil passports which would include personalised teaching strategies 2 Leadership The register can be filtered for data For example it can help to quickly answer questions such as 1 What is the breakdown of categories of need in your school? 2 What is the most prevalent primary need? This data is useful when thinking strategically about the focus for student provision training for TAs or CPD programmes for teachers One headteacher I worked with loved our SEND register and used it all t It’s important to keep the register up to date and to ensure that it syncs with the main data management system 1 What will be your process for reviewing the register? A collaborative approach is best through team meetings planned at strategic points of the year following feedback from teaching staff 2 How often will you review the register? For example you’ll probably need to get feedback on your incoming Year 7 SEN support students by the end of the first term Some of them may not need to remain on the SEND register but the progress of all students will need to be regularly reviewed and their provision updated accordingly.
