First SEND Access Screener

A brief, non-diagnostic screener to help identify whether a child or young person may need educational provision that is additional to or different from ordinary teaching, routines, environment or access arrangements.

Important: This screener does not diagnose a condition or decide legal entitlement. It records perceived strengths, difficulties and educational impact, then suggests the next support route.
