Spiro is a cloud-based SEND management platform for UK primary schools, designed for SENCOs and school staff managing EHCP provision and broader special educational needs administration. Its workspace covers individual support plans, EHCP uploads and outcome extraction, needs-assessment applications, annual reviews, provision mapping, development journals, behaviour records, document storage and statutory reporting. It also supports collaboration among teachers, teaching assistants, parents and carers, with AI-assisted document drafting, target suggestions and progress-report workflows.

Pricing is structured by school size and billed annually. The Single-form entry plan costs £500 per school per year and includes unlimited AI usage, pupils and staff, a staff training session, one-on-one SENCO onboarding and MIS integration. Two-form entry costs £700 per school per year with the same listed inclusions. The MATs & other formats plan provides the full platform, with pricing on request. The pricing page also states that schools can try Spiro risk-free for their first term and pay nothing if they do not continue. This makes the entry plans straightforward for schools seeking a defined annual cost, while larger or differently structured organisations need a tailored quote.

Spiro’s strongest fit is statutory and operational coordination: it combines support-plan tracking, EHCP outcome alignment, annual-review timelines, intervention scheduling, cost and impact tracking, and Ofsted, governor and statutory reporting. It includes multi-factor authentication and integrates with MIS through Wonde. Schools looking for a focused SEND administration platform should find the feature set aligned with EHCP-led workflows. Organisations that need a broader integration ecosystem or a non-web deployment should assess the fit carefully. The product is most suitable for UK schools where SENCO onboarding, provision mapping and review management are central requirements.
