Questions answered by the new SEND Provision Chart in Blippit

The SEND Provision chart (once you've got some moments tagged with SEND Provision tags) shows where SEND support has been recorded across people's boards.

SEND 1-4 tags are generic labels used to represent targeted provision groups in your school. You might only use the 'send 1' tag to correspond with one provision group, while others might need to use 'send 2' 'send 3' or even 'send 4' depending on how provision is organised.

Questions the chart filters help you to answer

1. Key Stage

Does SEND provision appear more often in certain stages of the school?

Filtering by Key Stage allows you to see whether provision is appearing more frequently in:

• EYFS
• KS1
• KS2

This can help identify patterns in when support is most commonly recorded across the school and supports possible follow-up thoughts and actions about

• Are we seeing more provision recorded in early years or later stages?
• Does this reflect the needs we expect to see at those stages?

2. Year Group

Are particular year groups generating more SEND provision moments?

Filtering by Year Group allows you to explore patterns within specific cohorts.

For example:

• Does one year group show significantly more SEND boards than others?
• Is provision activity concentrated in one class?

Possible follow-up thinking might be

• Does this reflect the needs of a particular cohort?
• Is additional support already in place for that year group?

3. Subject

In which subjects is SEND provision most often being recorded?

Filtering by subject shows the curriculum contexts where SEND support is appearing.

For example:

• Is SEND provision frequently recorded in Maths boards?
• Does it appear less often in other subjects?

Possible follow-up thinking

• Are teachers recording more support in particular subjects?
• Are there curriculum areas where differentiation is especially visible?

Seeing the boards behind the data

Every chart segment can be tapped to show you the moments on boards that generated the data, allowing you to review the moments where SEND provision was recorded.

How leaders might use the SEND Provision chart

For senior leaders, the chart can help provide a quick overview of how SEND provision appears across the school’s evidence.

It may help leaders explore questions such as:

• Where is SEND provision most frequently being recorded?
• Are certain year groups generating more SEND-related boards?
• Are particular subjects showing more evidence of support strategies?

This can help guide further conversations with staff about how SEND support is being implemented and recorded. We hope you find this quick overview of the chart for SEND Provision and how it can be interpreted in Blippit Boards.
