Close the gap for SEND pupils
The rising number of neurodiverse learners is adding pressure to already overstretched schools. Teachers struggle to identify individual needs, juggle admin, and navigate the complex funding process—all while trying to provide the support their pupils deserve. PAGS (Profile, Assessment, and Goal Setting) helps you assess needs, plan strategies, evidence outcomes, and secure the funding your SEND pupils deserve.
-
Support every learner
PAGS’ evidence-backed algorithm identifies learner needs, automatically assigns SMART targets, and recommends tailored strategies—all in one place. No more guesswork. Just targeted, effective support.
-
Less admin, more impact
Save up to 20 hours per pupil per term by streamlining SEND management. With real-time progress tracking, instant reporting, and all your data in one place, you can focus less on paperwork and more on making a difference with students.
-
Secure essential funding
Fast-track EHCP applications and secure the funding your pupils deserve. PAGS makes it easy to gather evidence, track costs, and ensure every resource is used effectively to provide the best support for every learner.
How it works
PAGS brings together parents, educators, and professionals to share information and personalise
learning trajectories.
360° profile assessment
Educators or parents complete the PAGS assessment, evaluating skill development in four modules:
- Communication
- Social interaction
- Self-regulation
- Cognition and learning
Key learning objectives
The platform identifies the learner’s developmental stage and highlights key areas to focus on. Flexible options allow customisation of recommendations to suit individual needs.
Personalised intervention plan
Based on goals, the system suggests targets and strategies to build key skills. Educators can also add custom targets, ensuring personalised and effective interventions.
Progress tracking
Regular prompts for feedback from the learner’s support team track progress. Skills are considered “mastered” when applied systematically across different environments.
Everything you need to support SEND pupils
-
Developmental age insights
Understand each learner’s developmental age and compare it to expected neurotypical progress for their age group. This empowers educators to set realistic expectations and tailor teaching methods effectively.
-
Personalised learning plans
Create comprehensive educational plans that integrate targets, interventions, provisions, and more—all in one place. Simplify EHCP planning and execution to ensure every pupil gets the support they need while tracking intervention effectiveness and cost-efficiency.
-
Progress monitoring
Track and record learners’ development over time with PAGS’ progress monitoring system. Visualise progress through graphs and reports, enabling educators, parents, and administrators to make data-driven decisions about a learner’s educational journey.
-
Resource management
Optimise resources with tools for provision mapping, cost tracking, and resource allocation. Gain actionable insights to manage resources efficiently and maximise impact.
-
Collaboration and community sharing
Foster collaboration among teachers, parents, and external professionals to enhance learner outcomes. Share targets and resources with other schools or the wider PAGS community to encourage collective improvement and support.
