Email. Spreadsheet. Assessment. Teacher feedback. Notes. The evidence may already exist. The problem is where it lives. SENDassistant helps bring information together so you're building the learner's picture as you go — not searching for it later. #SENCO #AccessArrangements #EdTech #SENDassistant

Practical tip: Record the difference, not just the support. Instead of only noting what a learner uses, capture: → The difficulty → The support used → The impact it has Don't just record what you do. Record **why you do it and what difference it makes.** #SENCO #AccessArrangements #SENDassistant

Normal way of working isn't something we should have to recreate retrospectively. It develops through classroom support, teacher observations, strategies and internal assessments. JCQ's evidence guidance reminds us to capture evidence as it happens. zurl.co/d1h0j #SENCO #AccessArrangements

Evidence doesn't begin when you start completing the paperwork. It's being created every day — through classroom support, teacher observations, strategies and internal assessments. The challenge is capturing it while it's happening. #SEND #SENCO #AccessArrangements #SENDassistant #TeacherWorkload

The worst time to discover you need more evidence is when a deadline is approaching. Start identifying. Start gathering. Build the picture as you go. With SENDassistant, when you need the evidence, you're not starting from scratch. #Edusky #SENCO #AccessArrangements #SENDassistant #TeacherWorkload

One teacher sees a difficulty. Another has found a strategy that helps. Together, those observations build a much clearer picture — if the information reaches the right place. Good decisions start with good information. Bring the evidence together. #Edusky #SENCO #AccessArrangements #SENDassistant

Practical tip: Make it easy to raise a concern. Ask staff to record: → What difficulty are you seeing? → When does it happen? → What have you tried? → Did it help? → Is there a pattern? Teachers don't need to diagnose. You need their observations. #Edusky #SENCO #AccessArrangements #SENDassistant

The signs can appear long before an Access Arrangement becomes urgent.
Running out of time. Processing difficulties. Support being used regularly.
Spotting patterns early gives you time to understand the learner — not rush the process later. #Edusky #SENCO #AccessArrangements #EdTech #SENDassistant

Build the process before you need it.

One place for information. Clear progress. Trackable staff feedback. Evidence that builds as you go. Move from reacting and chasing to a process your team can actually see. Start as you mean to go on. #Edusky #SENCO #AccessArrangements #EdTech #SENDassistant

If your Access Arrangements process only works because one person remembers everything, the person has become the system. Your expertise should drive the process. Your memory shouldn't have to hold it together. #SEND #SENCO #AccessArrangements #EdTech #SENDassistant #TeacherWorkload #StaffWellbeing

Practical tip: Make your Access Arrangements process visible. Ask yourself: ✓ How are students identified?✓ Where is evidence recorded?✓ Who owns each stage? ✓ How is progress tracked? ✓ When will you review it? If you can see the process, you can manage it. #Edusky #SENCO #AccessArrangements

JCQ's guide for teaching staff is a useful reminder that Access Arrangements are a whole-centre process — not something that should sit entirely with the SENCO or Access Arrangements Coordinator. zurl.co/HYL30

The Access Arrangements work that becomes urgent later often starts quietly now. Identifying. Gathering. Recording. Checking. Organising. A calmer process later starts with the systems you create now. Start as you mean to go on. #Edusky #SENCO #AccessArrangements #EdTech #SENDassistant

A good system should take pressure off you—not add to it. Know where things are. Know what's outstanding. Know what happens next. Everything shouldn't have to live inside the SENCO's head. Good systems create breathing room. #Edusky #SENO #SENCO #AccessArrangements #SENDassistant #TeacherWorkload
