StepIntoSchool: Information for Early Years Providers and Schools
All the benefits of SixIntoSeven are now available for children moving from nurseries to primary school.
StepIntoSchool is our online service, which just like SixIntoSeven, enhances the transition experience for children in nursery schools. The solution is made particularly for children identified as SEND or at risk as they move into primary school. Through tailored, consistent and comprehensive data and information sharing, we help early years providers and schools ensure that pupils have the best possible start to their school journey.
How StepIntoSchool works for transition to primary school
- By facilitating the smooth, secure sharing of knowledge from early years providers to destination primary schools, StepIntoSchool creates a personalised pathway for SEND and vulnerable children.
- Early years providers add information to the secure, GDPR-compliant platform.
- Primary schools receive a comprehensive profile for each child in the cohort.
- Each child’s transition needs can be met from day one.
How StepIntoSchool supports early years providers and schools to deliver an enhanced transition
Early intervention
Detailed pupil information for SEND and vulnerable pupils can be shared by the early years provider well in advance of transition, enabling primary schools to put early intervention measures in place and give children the best possible start in September.
Consistency
Schools within a local authority use the same system for sharing transition information. This streamlines the process and means that early years providers only have one form to fill in and primary schools have only one set of data to analyse.
A detailed pupil profile
A wide range of information in different formats can be uploaded to the platform, including care plans, flags and voice notes, providing a complete picture of a child’s needs.
GDPR compliance
Pupil Pathways guarantees compliance with all GDPR and data protection standards.
Compatibility
The platform works seamlessly alongside all safeguarding platforms and MIS’s.
StepIntoSchool is used successfully in Tameside and there is currently a pilot project in Hounslow.
