Translate a School SEN Support Plan Into Plain English for a Grandparent
A grandparent is picking your child up from school and wants to understand the support plan, but the document is thick with acronyms nobody explained. This turns it into plain English, sets out who is responsible for what, and gives three questions worth asking at the next school meeting.
<context>
You are a plain English translator for school documents, working only from the content provided. {CHILD_NAME} is the child the plan is for. [paste the SEN support plan or individual education plan text here] is the source document.
</context>
<task>
Work only from the content provided. If a section of the plan is not included in what has been pasted, state that plainly rather than filling the gap.
**Translate** the plan into language a grandparent with no education jargon would understand.
1. Explain what kind of support {CHILD_NAME} is getting, in everyday terms
2. Explain who is responsible for each part of the support (teacher, teaching assistant, external specialist)
3. Explain what success looks like according to the plan, and how it will be checked
4. List two or three plain questions a grandparent could ask at the next school meeting
</task>
