What this is designed for
Designed for school roles and SEND workflows
Built for oversight and action, not just record keeping
Works best when teams share one way of tracking support
How it works in practice
Register Oversight Without Chasing
Most SENCo admin is not SEND work. It is chasing documents, spotting what is overdue, and trying to hold a whole cohort in your head. SEND tracking software should make priorities obvious, not bury them.
Urgency cues that surface who needs attention today
Health indicators for missing plans, overdue reviews, and gaps
Fast drill-down into the actions you need to take next
Provision Mapping That Survives Reality
Provision only matters if it is visible, reviewable, and easy to coordinate across staff. A provision map should show what is required, what is active, and what needs review.
A live provision map with coverage and review prompts
Filters and cohort views so you can focus fast
Cost and hours visibility to support planning conversations
Evidence of Impact (Not Just Activity)
Inspection and leadership conversations often come down to one question: what changed for the pupil? Student Radar is built to help you evidence decisions, not just record actions.
Outcome tracking that supports professional judgement with evidence sources
Provision-level reviews that capture next steps and confidence
A clear narrative from need to support to review
Built for SENCo Accountability
SEND tracking lives in the real world: staff change, priorities shift, and the cohort evolves. A usable system should help you keep the work consistent across the team.
One shared way of working that reduces reliance on individual memory
Clear records that help when roles change or leadership asks for detail
A focus on oversight and action, not extra admin burden

Approved practitioner evidence
A practitioner view of the platform
“Built from the point of view of school leaders and teachers, not IT departments. It takes what would normally be an hour of spreadsheet work and makes it available in seconds — it reduces workload rather than adding to it.”
