SEN Master review
A focused web platform for managing SENCO caseloads, support cycles and EHCP evidence.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
SEN Master is a browser-based SEND provision mapping platform for UK schools and SENCOs. It brings caseload oversight, support status, provision mapping and intervention cost tracking into a SENCO dashboard. Teams can manage SMART targets, personalised strategies, support-cycle outcomes, parent feedback and EHCP review information. Role-based access gives SENCOs and staff differentiated access, while exportable reports support provision reviews and compliance evidence. It is aimed at schools that need a dedicated system for coordinating special educational needs provision rather than a general-purpose student information platform.
Its strongest area is the depth of the support-cycle workflow. Provision can be mapped across Wave 1 and Wave 2 & 3 support, with target and strategy libraries available for repeatable planning. The system also connects planned support with outcomes, parent feedback, intervention costs and EHCP status, review-date and compliance tracking. That combination should suit SENCOs who need to follow provision from planning through review and reporting. Schools looking only for basic record keeping may find this wider workflow more than they need.
SEN Master is delivered on the web and requires no installation. The single plan is offered per school, and a 42-day free trial gives schools time to assess the workflow before committing. MIS student-data synchronisation is available through SIMS, Arbor, Bromcom and ScholarPack, which supports schools using those systems. The product is therefore a practical fit for UK schools seeking focused SEND administration with staff sharing and reporting. Schools outside that ecosystem, or those needing a broader platform beyond special educational needs provision, should consider whether its narrow remit matches their operational needs.
