SEND Audit & APDR Toolkit for Primary SENCOs (FULL PACK)

A practical SEND classroom audit and APDR evidence toolkit for UK primary teachers, SENCOs and inclusion leads, with editable DOCX and PDF files.

Learnella Include helps staff move from noticing classroom barriers to choosing reasonable adjustments, reviewing impact and gathering useful classroom-level evidence for SEN Support and APDR discussions.

This is not just a checklist pack. It is a structured classroom-to-evidence workflow designed to reduce the “paper maze” around inclusive practice.
