Special Educational Needs Software Overview
The Special Education Needs (SEN) solution is an off the shelf software module that is part of the Synergy software suite. The module can run as an extension of the core pupil and school database module or stand alone as required.
The system can manage the support of students at any age or level of special need. Comprehensive case details are recorded including user definable labels and data items. External documents and files can be attached to a case and a full document history is maintained.
All professionals with a login can contribute information, so it makes it easier and quicker to compile a child’s Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) within the statutory timeframe. It then supports the EHCP so you can view all relevant information in one place. Workflows also allow procedures to be automated, which helps reduce the timescale of statutory SEN processes.
Workflows
Workflow allows procedures to be formalised and automated as far as possible with high levels of integration for letter production and email integration as a contact option. This workflow is particularly useful for the administration of the SEN statutory assessment and review processes.
Automatic production of letters, reminders and alerts makes the system particularly effective in reducing the assessment process time scale. Key performance indicator information is produced at the touch of a button based on data collected as a by-product of case support. We offer a complete suite of integrated authority management software designed to deliver the best operational systems.
