The school is part of the Gosforth Group Multi-Academy Trust. Adrian Tate is an ICT teacher and the school’s VLE Co-ordinator.   **The Challenge**  The school’s pastoral staff needed a simple way to maintain records for all Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) students, whilst also providing teaching staff with easy access to those records. The SEND Coordinator was keen to avoid introducing any additional solutions as that would require teachers to set up and remember further login details.    **The Frog Solution**  Adrian worked with the SEND Coordinator and team of teaching assistants to create SEND [ePortfolios](https://www.frogeducation.com/community/inspiration/case-studies/tripbooking) in Frog. They were able to customise the layout (creating further engagement), and by using the ePortfolio system each space is secured for Academy staff access only, while being individually named for each student. The SEN groups are maintained by their MIS link and during the academic year, it is a straight-forward task for Adrian to create spaces for any new pupils.\*   **The Impact**  “*This solution makes even greater use of the Frog platform that teachers already use daily. The school ensures staff have instant access to relevant information and personalised guidance for each pupil with SEND. Frog’s easy-to-use editor means teaching assistants can easily update information from laptops, desktops and tablets*.” **Adrian Tate, Gosforth Academy**   We have a great tutorial on [ePortfolios](https://schools.frogeducation.com/community/training/eportfolios)...

This allows for the ePortfolios to be about an individual, without giving them access).   ![Kermit.jpg](https://inspire.frogeducation.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Frog%20Ribbits/Kermit.jpg?width=154&name=Kermit.jpg)   - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) Topics: [Product](https://inspire.frogeducation.com/ribbits/tag/product), [Parental Engagement](https://inspire.frogeducation.com/ribbits/tag/parental-engagement), [ePortfolios](https://inspire.frogeducation.com/ribbits/tag/eportfolios), [ribbit](https://inspire.frogeducation.com/ribbits/tag/ribbit), [EdTech](https://inspire.frogeducation.com/ribbits/tag/edtech), [FrogLearn](https://inspire.frogeducation.com/ribbits/tag/froglearn), [SEND](https://inspire.frogeducation.com/ribbits/tag/send), [secure](https://inspire.frogeducation.com/ribbits/tag/secure) --- [![View all Ribbits](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/2591845/c87b6a0a-6cfd-4e26-8a6b-4afff63fa75e.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/2591845/c87b6a0a-6cfd-4e26-8a6b-4afff63fa75e) ![Logo_WHITE.png](https://www.frogeducation.com/application/files/8315/3208/2537/Logo_WHITE.png) We believe that every child can be given a unique and personal education, and that this can be delivered by today’s teachers without increasing workload through the clever use of technology. +44 (0)1422 250800 hello@frogeducation.com Dean Clough Mills, Halifax HX3 5AX         Find on **[Google Maps](https://goo.gl/maps/rpkxLpWPFHB2)** - - - - - [Sitemap](https://froglms.com/legal/sitemap) [Terms & Conditions](https://www.frogeducation.com/important/corporate-terms) [Cookies Policy](https://www.frogeducation.com/important/cookies) [Privacy Policy](https://www.frogeducation.com/privacy) [GDPR](https://www.frogeducation.com/important/gdpr) ![](https://www.facebook.com/tr?id=290289854830248&ev=PageView&noscript=1) ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "Kermit", "url" : "https://inspire.frogeducation.com/ribbits/author/kermit" }, "dateModified" : "2022-06-28T06:45:00.397Z", "datePublished" : "2022-06-28T06:45:00.000Z", "headline" : "SEND Records secured on Frog", "image" : [ "https://inspire.frogeducation.com/hubfs/Blogs/Frog%20Ribbits/01%20-%20June%202022/SEND%20(Gosforth)/Ribbit_Featured.jpg" ], "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://inspire.frogeducation.com/ribbits/sendeportfolios-gosforth", "@type" : "WebPage" }, "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://inspire.frogeducation.com/hubfs/FrogHeadTransparent.png" }, "name" : "Frog Education" } } ```
