SEND paperwork, drafted from what you already know about each child.
Support plans with SMART targets, class provision maps, termly target reviews and annual review drafts, all in one place and built around the SEND Code of Practice. You stay the expert. Staffroom does the first draft.
No card needed · pupil names never reach the AI
Every stage of the graduated approach
Each tool feeds the next. The support plan you write in the autumn becomes the provision map, the targets you review each term, and the evidence in your annual review.
- Assess
SEN support plans
Choose a pupil and an area of need from the SEND Code of Practice (communication and interaction, cognition and learning, SEMH, sensory and physical), describe what you know, and get a draft provision description, SMART short-term targets and classroom strategies to edit.
- Plan
Provision maps
Build a class provision map for the term from the support plans already in Staffroom: Wave 1 strategies for the whole class, Wave 2 groups and Wave 3 individual support, ready to share with staff.
- Do
Staff guidance cards
A one-page card for each pupil's TAs, supply teachers and cover staff, so the strategies in the plan are used in every lesson, not only the ones you teach.
- Review
Target progress tracking
Record each target as Met, Partial, On track or Not yet every term, with review notes. The history builds up for each pupil, so review meetings start from evidence.
- Review
EHCP annual review drafts
Add progress, attainment, the pupil's views and the family's views, and Staffroom drafts an annual review report structured around the SEND Code of Practice, with outcomes and next steps for you to check and finish.
- Communicate
Letters to families and professionals
Parent and carer letters about support and meetings, and referral letters to educational psychologists, speech and language therapy, OT, CAMHS and other services.

Questions from SENCOs
Does Staffroom write EHCPs?
No. Education, Health and Care Plans are issued by the local authority. Staffroom helps with the school's side: SEN support plans, provision maps, target reviews, annual review reports and the letters around them. Every draft is for you to check, edit and sign off.
Is the SEN paperwork based on the SEND Code of Practice?
Yes. Support plans use the Code's four broad areas of need, provision maps follow the Wave 1, 2 and 3 model, and annual review drafts follow the Code's structure, including the pupil's and family's views.
How is sensitive pupil information protected?
Pupil names are replaced with pseudonyms before anything is sent to an AI model, and restored inside Staffroom. Pupil data is never used to train AI models, and we sign a Data Processing Agreement with your school on request.
Do SEN notes appear in lesson plans or reports automatically?
No. SEN notes are never pulled into lesson plans automatically, so sensitive details only go where you choose to put them.

The SEN tools are included in Staffroom Pro (£6.99 a month or £72 a year) and in every school plan. Start with a 14-day free trial, with no card needed. The four SEN letter and note tools are also free to try without an account.
