The Programme, week by week

 

​

Week 1 - See Clearly
You know your child better than anyone, but without the right language or evidence, that expertise can be too easily dismissed.  

You'll build a clear, confident picture of your child, replacing second-guessing with a real understanding of how they present, what they need, and why, that you can share with anyone.
Your Build Kit: Child Profile, Strengths & Needs Profile, Observation Journal, Concerns Timeline, Next Conversation Planner

​

Week 2 - Communicate with Confidence
Conversations with school can feel like a battle you brace for rather than a partnership you lead.

You'll learn how to build real partnership with the professionals around your child, communicating calmly and purposefully instead of reactively.
Your Build Kit: Communication Planner, Email Frameworks, Contact Directory, Meeting Planner, Communication Log

​​

Week 3 - Build Your Evidence

It's easy to end up relying on memory in meetings where professionals have files, notes and data behind them.

You'll replace memory and guesswork with organised evidence, so you walk into every conversation prepared, not scrambling.
Your Build Kit: Evidence Tracker, Provision Tracker, Action Tracker, Decision Log, Document Index

​

Week 4 - Lead the Conversation

Too many meetings end with you having said nothing, or having said too much out of frustration.

You'll learn to speak up with calm confidence instead of staying quiet or leaving upset and angry, so your child's needs are known, understood and addressed.
Your Build Kit: Meeting Agenda Builder, Parent Contribution Planner, Child's Voice Planner, Co-Production Checklist, Action Agreement Record

​

Week 5 - Advocate with Agency

Decisions and agreements can often get made in the moment, under pressure, before you've had the chance to know your options.

You'll know exactly what to ask for and when, working with professionals to reach decisions that are right for your family instead of emotional ones made under pressure.
Your Build Kit: Advocacy Decision Planner, Rights & Responsibilities Guide, Escalation Decision Tree, Request Planning Template, Evidence Summary

​

Week 6 — Navigate Forward

Every new stage of the journey can feel like starting from scratch again.

You'll bring everything together into your Navigator Portfolio, ready to guide you at every future meeting, transition and decision, long after the six weeks end.
Your Build Kit: SEND Journey Roadmap, Annual Review or Support Plan Review Planner, Transition Planner, Future Milestones Calendar, and the culminating My Personal SEND Navigation Strategy.
