SEN Managers can add strategies to help teachers plan for the needs of the SEN student. Conversely, they can also delete strategies when they are no longer relevant by clicking the bin icon. To add a strategy, the manager must click on the + icon.

SEN Strategies

In the strategies window, you must add the title of the need or strategy and then a description of the strategy. Once finished, click Add, and the table will be updated with the new SEN strategy.

Next, set your document type to SEN Note.

Then, select the format you would like for the document upload. For iSAMS exports, please see Uploading iSAMS Document Imports into Edulink One Documents. You can also upload documents from other sources using the student name + form file format. Please note that the file names must be written with the student’s name and form exactly as they appear in the MIS.

File Formats

Drag and drop the file to upload the document.

If you are successful, the document appears in the list. The document will also appear in the Documents and SEN area of Edulink One, if enabled.

MIS Compatibility

Some aspects of SEN may not be available in Arbor, Bromcom or iSAMS. Current needs are available.
