What's in the workbook

Forty designed pages of fillable tools — for the parent who can't read a 120-page book this week.

TOOL 01

The Three-State Tracker

Daily Green / Amber / Red check. With "if you see X, do this and don't do this" advice on every state.

TOOL 02

The Weekly Tracker grid

Seven days, four windows a day. The evidence base a GP, the LA, or a tribunal will actually accept.

TOOL 03

The Core Demands Audit

Twelve categories of demand reduced to a single, fillable map of your home environment.

TOOL 04

The Trigger Sweep

Sensory, social, academic, transitional, relational. The list parents miss when they only look at the school day.

TOOL 05

The Language Audit

Ten "won't" phrases and the "can't" translation. With a "why this matters" column so you know what each switch protects.

TOOL 06

The Symptom & Impact Log

The structure your GP will recognise. Worked example included.

TOOL 07

The Section 19 Letter

The fillable template that triggers the Local Authority's statutory duty to provide education. With the exact statutory wording.

TOOL 08

The EHCNA "May" Test Checklist

The legal threshold for assessment. Most refusals fail this test — the checklist shows you where.

TOOL 09

Exclusion & Discrimination Quick Check

When the situation is not just SEND but discrimination. A five-question check before you escalate.

TOOL 10

Your Situation Map

The qualifier that tells you whether a free fifteen-minute call with SEND Navigate is the right next step — or whether the workbook alone is enough.

A VOICE FROM THE COMMUNITY

"Behind every absence is a story. Not of defiance, as it is so often labelled, but of distress."

RABBI MARTIN TAUBMAN · forty years in education
