A Lyceum Labs project
The SEND School Navigator is an independent companion for families investigating schools and preparing questions. It does not rank schools, diagnose a child, recommend a placement or replace advice.
We gather public school and government sources, keep their provenance visible and separate source-backed statements from general prompts. Missing or stale evidence is shown as a gap, not turned into a conclusion.
The evidence log is stored on your device. Do not enter child names, dates of birth, EHCP content, diagnoses or incident details into server-backed searches or feedback.
Schools cannot pay to improve their position because there is no ranking. Lyceum Labs also works with school teams and publishes research, but the programmes do not share personal data or quietly influence one another’s evidence.
