What do Schools think?

Clear insights

“Connecting Steps has contributed to an increase in successful EHC plan applications, leading to additional support for students and a positive impact on outcomes. Data collation is much faster, and the platform provides clear insights into gaps in learning. This enables timely and targeted interventions.”

SENCo, Icknield Primary School

Invaluable monitoring tool

“We use the Connecting Steps assessment software throughout our setting to support the learning of children and young people with SEND and evaluate the impact of our SEND interventions. We consider it to be an invaluable monitoring tool.”

Showing small steps of progress

“As an ASN school we needed a more bespoke tracking system to better suit the level of our pupils, pace of progress and likely outcomes. Connecting Steps has given us that ability to show even the smallest of progress for some of our most complex learners whilst also allowing us to tracking right up to SQA and SCQF senior phase qualifications.”
