Teaching Assistant Intervention & Handover Toolkit

A practical 16-page toolkit for teaching assistants, learning support assistants, HLTAs, teachers and SEND teams who need clearer intervention records and more useful day-to-day handover.

The pack helps adults organise support, record concise evidence, notice progress and barriers, and share what matters with the teacher or appropriate lead. It is designed to support professional communication without turning every interaction into lengthy paperwork.

Included:

• Teaching assistant daily deployment overview
• Pupil support snapshot
• Intervention cycle plan
• Individual intervention session record
• Group intervention session record
• Progress monitor
• Teacher–TA daily handover
• Weekly intervention and support summary
• Factual observation and pattern record
• Communication and regulation support review
• Environment and adjustment review
• Meeting and action record
• Teaching assistant reflective-practice record
• Intervention impact and next-decision summary
• Start-here guidance and record-keeping prompts

Formats:

• Print-ready 16-page A4 PDF
• Fully editable Word version

The wording promotes factual recording, pupil voice, accessible communication, appropriate adjustments and support for independence. Progress markers use practical language such as not yet, emerging, more consistent and applied independently rather than reducing progress to a score.

Use alongside your setting’s policies, agreed plans, safeguarding procedures, statutory records and specialist advice. The forms do not replace those processes.
