The SEN Support Tracker App at www.sensupporttrackerapp.org has transformed the way parents evidence their child’s needs and hold schools and services to account. For the first time, families have a simple, structured way to record concerns, track provision, log incidents, store assessments, and build the paper trail that so often determines outcomes. It removes the guesswork, strengthens every conversation, and ensures nothing can be dismissed, forgotten, or rewritten. With real‑time tracking and clear reporting, the app empowers parents to advocate with confidence and gives professionals the transparency they should already be working to. It’s accountability, clarity, and evidence all in one place, and it’s changing the landscape for SEND families every day.
