SEMH reports and the audit log

Updated 10 September 2026.

Use Patterns for one child and Reports for the school. Suggestions are options for a person.

Patterns

Last 28 days, per child: counts by zone, how far from the regulated midpoint, weekday and time of day, and what they returned to class after. Rules may suggest a conversation or a plan. Nothing here is a risk score or a predicted outcome.

Reports

Choose the period at the top: the last 28 days, the last 12 weeks, the academic year so far, or dates you choose. The same counts for the period before sit beside it: the same number of days just before, or the same dates last year for the academic year. Two columns, never a verdict. School-level counts and charts: time-in-zone share, daily and weekday volume, feeling words the school configured, minutes out of class (median and 90th percentile, never a mean of the scale), a table of each session’s start, end and minutes with a link to correct the record, how many children could not be returned to class this month, which strategies were often followed by a return or are worth a review, the same counts by pathway (regulation, intervention, access, never mixed), year-group and zone slices, sequences when staff switched, and a class zone mix. Ended group sittings have a separate presence table (targeted vs present). Present children are not in check-in or zone counts. Cancelled check-ins and sessions with no usable minutes stay out of these counts. Archived sessions stay on the record and are left out of these counts. The Inclusion and Progress sections count the SEN register, provision recorded in the period, whether intervention and access lines have had a first look and a review, by pathway, and by year only when that year has at least 5 pupils, and second looks by provision name once that name has 5 reviews closed in the period. Named review sheets stay on Support plans. SENCOs also see named per-child rows. Counts and settled ratings only. This is not a score. A person decides whether to retire an offer. Print or save as PDF from the browser. Evidence pack is the same figures on one page for governors, for the same period: the comparison with the period before, which strategies were often followed by a return or are worth a review, inclusion counts, provision recorded, provision cost when that switch is on, and whether intervention lines have been reviewed. No pupil names.

A child pack is a dated record for one pupil: the school's own feeling words and how often they were chosen, what happened on each session, weekday and time patterns, and which strategies they returned after. The same counts for the same number of days before sit beside it as two columns, never a verdict. Opening a pack highlights ended sessions that are missing usual details: times, what they did, whether they went back, how settled. Add them, or leave as-is if that is how the record should stand. The same list sits on Alerts until it is filled or left as-is; it is not printed on a parent pack. Open a session from the pack to correct times, the strategies used, or whether they went back; Save changes returns you to the pack. Class teachers see their class; TAs and SENCOs see the school. The list can be searched by name and narrowed by class, year, or missing session details, one page at a time. Print or save one pack as a branded PDF. Export CSV is one row per session, with the same columns for one child or for every child you can see. Each row includes who delivered it, who closed it, when it ended, where it happened, how the check-in was made, and the notes on that session. Legal names stay off the printed page. The CSV includes legal name, the MIS id and the UPN on each row so it can be matched in Arbor. Counts only. Never an average of the scale or a risk score. Opening a pack and exporting it are written to the audit log.

Audit

Every change writes an audit row in the same transaction: who did what. Closing a session records who closed it, when they wrote it, and the time they said the session ended. Editing an ended session stores the previous and next values. Leaving missing session details as-is writes `session.gaps_ack`. Named-pupil reads (a pupil page, an export, a subject-access request) are also logged. Now-view refreshes are not. The log cannot be edited or deleted. Sessions are archived, never deleted.
