Description

We are seeking a system designed to facilitate the high level assessment, profiling and action planning, of individual students and cohorts within educational settings.

We are open to development opportunities in order to achieve this. The solution will need to be compliant with both Essex County Council and national policies and regulations.

The system will support the Inclusion Framework, which was introduced in Essex in 2020/21 to support early intervention and inclusion in education, following the principle of 'Life without Labels'. The Framework supports timely intervention to remove barriers to education at the earliest opportunity, to avoid escalation of need and as a result to avoid unnecessary escalation to statutory processes related to SEND, exclusion and social care.

Staff profile students on a regular basis against a pre-defined list of capabilities and choose areas to focus on. From this, staff produce an action plan for an individual or group of students based on Inclusion Framework guidance, and will share this with the student, their parents/carers and ECC.

To enable this to happen, it will be essential that the system can capture and store student profiles which can be managed at user level (with appropriate access levels in place). The system must enable educational staff to access in-tool reporting that profiles the assessment results of individual students, custom groups and cohorts. This must include the ability to view a 'heatmap' style report with colour coded ratings. All system data must be exportable, potentially with the option for ECC staff to access in-tool reporting. The system must be accessible from multiple device types.
