A simple one-page reflective support sheet designed to help early years practitioners think through what may be making a situation difficult for a child — and what small changes they can try straight away.
The SEND Quick Support Sheet encourages practitioners to pause, notice possible barriers and consider practical adjustments rather than focusing only on the behaviour being seen.
It includes prompts to help you consider:
communication, regulation, sensory needs, transitions and engagement
possible barriers such as too much language, waiting, change or unclear expectations
practical strategies to try in the moment
what helped
what to continue, adapt or discuss next
Ideal for nurseries, preschools, childminders, SENDCos, room leaders and early years practitioners.
A useful tool for reflective practice, team discussions and supporting a more child-centred approach to SEND and inclusion.
