Student Profile Template & Completed Example | Student Support File & Planning Resource

This editable Student Profile Template is designed to help post-primary schools bring key information about a student together in one clear, practical document.

The profile can be used as part of the Student Support File and Student Support Planning process, helping staff develop a shared understanding of the student's strengths, interests, communication, sensory and regulation needs, independence and support needs.

The profile includes six key areas:

• Strengths & Interests
• How You Can Help Me
• Communication & Interaction
• Sensory & Regulation Profile
• Support & Independence Needs
• Safety, Medical & Care Information

What's included?

✓ Blank editable Student Profile template

✓ Completed example to demonstrate how the profile can be used

✓ Space for a student photograph and key information

✓ Clear, one-page format designed for quick reference

✓ Editable Word format so it can be adapted for individual students

How can it be used?

The Student Profile can be completed using information gathered through student voice, parent/guardian voice, observations, transition information and existing school records.

It can then be used alongside the Student Support File and Student Support Plan, providing staff with a concise snapshot of the student and highlighting the approaches and supports that may help them participate successfully in school.

Because it is designed as an at-a-glance working profile, it can also be shared with relevant staff supporting the student, helping to promote a more consistent approach across teachers, SNAs and other members of the school team.

Suitable for post-primary SEN/AEN settings, autism classes and students receiving additional support.
