Practitioners - Improve the timeliness of the identification, assessment and implementation of support to meet the needs of children and young people with SEND whether in school, flexi-schooled, using AP or being home educated.
“Includmi technology facilitates early, responsive, and inclusive support that helps reduce the demand and cost associated with specialist education, health, and care services. By identifying needs early and empowering families, professionals, and young people with tailored guidance and resources, Includmi prevents issues from escalating and promotes more sustainable, equitable outcomes.”
Ella Batchelor, Project Manager, Local area SEND, Derby City Council
Ensure young voices and opinions are heard by the authorities and acted on
The problem
1-in-5 children and young people have a probable mental health disorder, up from 1-in-9 in 2017. Increasing need for support from children with SEND has seen costs for councils soar and budget deficits forecast to reach £5 billion by 2025/26.
Some mainstream schools are struggling to meet need. Attendance is a concern and too many pupils, especially those with additional needs, are being excluded, with lower attainment rates and higher costs.
Too many young people aren’t able to make a positive contribution. Reducing the number not in education, employment or training (NEET) to the same levels as the Netherlands could generate £69 billion in GDP, such is the enormity of the problem.
Referrals to Children and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), have risen by 53% since 2019. Average waiting times to receive care is over 6 times the 4-week target, with some waiting 2 years.
The solution
Includmi saves management and admin time, freeing practitioners to work with young people and listen to their views
and provides real time, longitudinal reporting and service impact insights by young people with additional needs for young people
that builds a picture of what’s working well in addition to what still needs to be improved
helping practitioners get it right early on, re-engage young people, improve outcomes, and avoid unnecessary costs
Includmi strengthens young person-centred practice by:
giving all young people the same opportunity to access and participate in all parts of the service
including the young person, their family and support team in decision making
reflecting and seeking feedback from all involved.
making the ‘young person's voice' and preferences a priority
adjusting and tailoring activities towards the young person's unique needs
planning and designing all aspects of the service to meet the individual needs and abilities of each young person
“Derby is using the new app includmi as part of their short breaks framework…enabled them to place the young persons voice at the centre…provides crucial insights...”
