EDInclude: Reduce Exclusions and Suspensions

EDInclude and EDInclude+: Transforming Inclusion Units and Physical Isolation Rooms

EDInclude and EDInclude+ convert physical isolation rooms, inclusion bases, behaviour units, and IAPs into high-capacity, low-arousal learning hubs – delivering supportive live teaching, dynamic timetables, and automated behaviour repair without adding to staff workload or physical headcount.

Increasing Teaching and SEND Capacity inside Physical Units

Developed directly with the core priorities of Multi-Academy Trust CEOs, Headteachers, and Senior Leadership Teams in mind, EDInclude and EDInclude+ are engineered to dramatically reduce exclusions and suspensions while multiplying your internal teaching capacity inside inclusion rooms.

The core innovation of the EDInclude module is its ability to create a seamless academic bridge between a learner’s mainstream classroom and their setting in a physical inclusion or isolation unit.

This connection guarantees curriculum continuity; the platform act as a dynamic mirror of the school’s specific scheme of work, breaking down examination board specifications into precise, granular sub-topics that can be dynamically assigned based on the week of study.

This is made possible through a unified platform that combines continuous, high-ambition and specialised live teaching support and intervention.

By deploying EDClass within your inclusion units, your setting gains instant, direct access to our qualified UK teachers across English, Maths, Science, and foundation subjects.

By mapping assigned pathways directly to your school’s scheme of work, EDClass ensures pupils in isolation, off-site AP, or on reduced timetables cover the exact same academic content as their mainstream peers – fulfilling the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Act 2026 duty for verified active study and the DfE Suspension Guidance for Day 1/Day 6 instruction.

This continuous, high-ambition learning generates unalterable, audit-proof digital mark sheets that satisfy Ofsted’s Inclusion Framework while maintaining complete KCSIE safeguarding oversight and SEND Reform accessibility.

Real-Time Difficulty Adjustment

EDClass teachers actively monitor learner progress within the unit, adjusting lesson difficulty, task complexity, and scaffolding live on screen.

Targeted Small-group and Individual Provision

Assign specific lessons and pathways tasks, diagnostic challenges, or live support sessions to individual learners or small cohorts within your IAP base.

Specialist SEND Scaffolding (EDInclude+)

Layers direct on-camera specialist teaching, live speech adaptation, and screen-sharing over 10,000+ adaptive diagnostic pathways - providing high-need SEND and EHCP learners with dedicated human support.

Restore Calm via Low-arousal Interaction

For general inclusion units, EDInclude utilises non-confrontational, live text and audio support alongside self-marking diagnostic circuit breakers, allowing dysregulated pupils to quietly process behaviour choices while remaining synchronised with their academic SOW.

How Pathway Assignment Works in the Isolation Unit

When a learner enters your isolation unit, the biggest academic risk is ‘dead time’ with non-aligned worksheets.

EDInclude eliminates this by using your mainstream scheme of work (SOW) to assign a precise digital pathway the moment the learner logs in. Here is the step-by-step Isolation Pathway Process with EDInclude:

Step 1: Subject and Topic Alignment

Upon entry, room staff or SLT select the learner’s mainstream subject timetable on the EDClass platform. If their class is studying Algebraic Fractions or Cell Division in Week 3, then the head of inclusion or the Inclusion manager can instantly assign that exact topic pathway to the learner's screen in the unit.

By unifying the curriculum and learning pathways along with EDClass teachers online to offer support, guidance and engagement then the learning and behaviour repair begins.

Whilst this takes place, automated progress tracking and monitoring as the learner moves through the learning pathway mapped to their needs, gaps of knowledge or what they are missing in the mainstream classroom.

The EDInclude module then provides schools, academies and MATs with the capacity to reduce suspensions while generating the unalterable, audit-proof digital evidence profiles required for Ofsted’s Inclusion Framework and statutory local authority reporting.

Step 2: Reading Age and Accessibility Calibration

If the isolated learner reads below their chronological age, the assigned SOW pathway automatically adjusts text density, vocabulary, and visual scaffolding just by a touch of the button.

Integrated text-to-speech tools ensure the learner accesses high-level mainstream concepts without reading barriers triggering further frustration.

Step 3: Diagnostic Gap Checks

Before advancing through the topic, the assigned pathway runs a brief baseline diagnostic and adaptive assessment. If the learner lacks prerequisite knowledge from earlier key stages, the pathway automatically inserts a targeted micro-module to repair the gap before connecting back to the current class topic.

Step 4: Complete Pathway Delivery (Recommended)

Instead of assigning single, isolated tasks, the learner is enrolled in the full sub-topic pathway. This allows the platform and online teachers to deliver the complete cycle of instruction: interactive learning, live teacher support, dynamic differentiation, and self-marking assessments.

Delivery inside the Unit: EDInclude vs EDInclude+

Once assigned, the pathway is delivered based on the learner’s behavioural and SEND needs inside the room:

Feature / Capability	EDInclude (General Isolation)	EDInclude+ (SEND / EHCP / High-need)
Teacher Interaction	Low-anxiety, monitored text chat and audio guidance.	Live text chat + 1-on-1 video interaction.
SOW Continuity	Covers exact mainstream sub-topics for that week.	Covers exact mainstream sub-topics with live speech/visual adaptation.
Behaviour Repair	DfE code-mapped behaviour reflection modules.	DfE code-mapped behaviour reflection modules.

This targeted module provides tailored learning pathways and instant teacher support, and ensures a strong focus on behaviour repair and safeguarding. All within a fully monitored and tracked secure environment.

Instant Access and Support for Vulnerable Students

EDInclude ensures that all students within your Isolation Rooms, Inclusion Units, and IAPs have instant communication capabilities with our experienced EDClass teachers.

We understand that students who are removed from their key subjects are often the most vulnerable and require immediate access to specialist, subject-specific educators. EDInclude bridges this gap and our teachers are accessible as soon as students log in.

Tailored Learning Pathways

Upon accessing EDInclude, students are presented with a vast library of learning pathways that are meticulously tailored to their individual needs. The library includes our pre-recorded lessons, engaging video clips, and interactive e-learning activities across a wide range of subjects.

This flexible and adaptable curriculum is specifically designed to be mapped to the subjects they are missing and address the diverse learning styles and requirements of students within your units, particularly those with SEND who may be facing various challenges.

Live Teacher Interaction, Marking, and Feedback

Our EDClass teachers actively support your students within EDInclude. They mark work, provide detailed feedback on answers, and engage in discussions to deepen understanding.

Furthermore, the algorithm automatically delivers extension and differentiated learning tasks designed to challenge, stretch, make learning easier, or provide alternative approaches, allowing students to evidence their learning at their own pace and level.

Comprehensive Tracking and Data-Driven Interventions

Everything within EDInclude sessions is fully tracked by the platform, providing your establishment with complete visibility of student engagement, progress, and areas of difficulty.

This detailed data facilitates the delivery and tracking of targeted interventions, enabling your inclusion staff to monitor student progress and adjust support strategies effectively.

The intelligent algorithm within EDInclude further personalises the learning pathway for each student, adapting based on their responses and progression.

Mapped Behaviour Repair Lessons

Recognising the reasons why students may be in these units, every student in EDInclude has access to behaviour repair lessons that are directly mapped to exclusion and suspension codes. This provides a structured and educational approach to addressing behavioural issues alongside academic learning.

Targeted Intervention Tools

The platform facilitates the delivery and tracking of targeted interventions, allowing inclusion staff to monitor the progress of students receiving additional support and adjust strategies as needed.

Nurture and Wellbeing Support

EDClass integrates a dedicated Nurture, Resilience, and Wellbeing Curriculum, providing valuable resources and activities to support the social, emotional, and mental health needs of students within the inclusion unit.

Safe and Structured Online Environment

EDClass offers a secure and predictable online learning space, which can be particularly beneficial for students with SEND, anxiety, SEMH needs, or Autism Spectrum Disorder who may find traditional classroom environments overwhelming.

Seamless Transitions for Student Wellbeing and Safeguarding

If a student requires a break or pause in their learning within an EDInclude session due to any issue, the platform allows for a seamless transition into the EDSafe module (for immediate safeguarding concerns, triggering contact with your SLT and behaviour management) or the EDNurture module (for tailored nurture, well-being, or SEND support).

Your staff have instant visibility of all chat logs, communications, and correspondences between our staff and your students within the platform, further enhancing your capacity to support and safeguard your learners.

Flexible Communication Channels

While EDClass offers various communication channels, EDInclude primarily focuses on text-based and verbal chat communication for instant support within the units.

For more in-depth verbal or face-to-face interactions, the EDTeach and EDSupport modules, with their live teaching capabilities, would be the more suitable options.

EDInclude is specifically designed for immediate, accessible support within the unit setting.

Key Benefits for Isolation Unit Management

Zero Staff Workload

On-site room supervisors do not need to print, collect, or explain paper work packs, EDClass handles the content delivery, marking, and teacher support.

De-escalated Room Environment

Low-arousal digital communication reduces interpersonal confrontation between room staff and dysregulated pupils.

Seamless Reintegration

Because the learner completes the exact topics being taught in class, they return to mainstream lessons without academic gaps or disorientation.

Ofsted-ready Audit Trail

Every minute of active study, task completion rate, and mark sheet on the assigned pathway is automatically archived to prove high academic ambition inside your inclusion base.
