For teachers and SENCOs

SEND guidance that respects your time.

Clear answers on the graduated approach, SEN Support and EHCPs, grounded in the SEND Code of Practice, with sources you can check.

We're piloting with Lancashire schools and families right now, and it's invite-only while we keep numbers small. Got a code? You're in. No code yet? Ask for one.

Things SENCOs ask us

  • What does the graduated approach look like in practice?
  • What should I include in an SEN Support Plan?
  • What reasonable adjustments should we be making for a disabled pupil?
  • How do I write effective EHCP outcomes?

What you get

How SpektraBot helps professionals

Guidance grounded in the SEND Code of Practice, with the source a click away.

  • Fast answers, with sources

    Ask a SEND question and get a clear answer that cites the guidance it came from, so you can check it yourself.

  • Graduated approach support

    Help with Assess, Plan, Do, Review cycles and what good SEN Support looks like in practice. This is the stage where most children's needs are meant to be met, and where your work matters most.

  • Parent communication

    Explain SEND processes to families in clear, everyday language.

  • EHCP support

    School responsibilities, provision mapping and annual review requirements, without the document trawl.

You are not imagining it

We know the pressure you're under

Supporting pupils with SEND on top of everything else is a lot. SpektraBot is built to give you time back.

  • No time to dig through guidance

    Looking things up in the Code of Practice takes hours you don't have. Ask SpektraBot and get to the relevant part in seconds, with the source alongside.

  • Every child is different

    General guidance is hard to apply to the pupil in front of you. SpektraBot helps you think through how the Code of Practice applies to a specific situation.

  • Guidance keeps moving

    Statutory guidance changes, and staying current is a job in itself. SpektraBot draws on published law and guidance, and shows you where each answer comes from.

Straight answers

What we will and will not claim

Honest about being AI

SpektraBot is an AI assistant, not a legal adviser. Like any AI, it can sometimes get things wrong or miss something. That's why answers cite the guidance they came from, and why it tells you when a question needs a qualified person.

Thinking about data protection?

Whether SpektraBot is right for your school is a decision for your school and its data protection officer. We won't tell you it's "safe": we'll help you decide. We can share documentation to support your DPIA, covering what we collect, where it's stored, and how long we keep it.

The bigger picture

You're not imagining the pressure

More pupils than ever need SEN support, and much of the work lands on teachers and SENCOs. Tools should carry some of that weight, not add to it.

The SEND system is designed so that most children's needs are met through the graduated approach, without anyone needing an advocate, a solicitor or a tribunal. When SEN Support is done well, escalation becomes the exception. SpektraBot is built to back that everyday work, and to help with the EHCP process when a plan is what a child needs.

Working in SEND can be heavy. If things are getting on top of you, or someone you're supporting is struggling, these lines are free and they will listen, right now.
