The ASAP Programme

Introducing ASAP: Accelerating SEND Autonomy & Practice  

PAG is thrilled to announce the launch of ASAP (Accelerating SEND Autonomy & Practice), an initiative focussed on driving practical change, supporting frontline professionals who live the SEND reality every day. By providing tailored support, empiric evaluation, and practical toolkits, ASAP will help initiatives scale rapidly and sustainably. With an unashamed focus on short to mid-terms solutions, ASAP’s targeted support can help great ideas from across the sector become widespread realities, buying much needed time in a system that is currently bleeding out.

ASAP is committed to identifying, scaling, and amplifying effective, evidence-based SEND practices that lead to real, measurable improvements in outcomes, inclusion, and cost-effectiveness.

How will ASAP make a difference? 

ASAP focuses on short to mid-term solutions that can be implemented quickly, addressing the urgent need for change in a system that is under increasing pressure. We’re looking for projects that demonstrate clear, measurable results—whether in improving educational outcomes, fostering inclusion, or delivering significant cost savings.

Our emphasis is on evidence-informed practices, demonstrable outcomes, and ethical, inclusive approaches. We welcome submissions from public, private, and third sectors. If, with our support, you can show that you can deliver cashable savings at no detriment to provision within 12-18 months, we need to talk.

What ASAP offers 

1. Strategic Support: Tailored support to help initiatives scale quickly and sustainably. 

2. Empirical Evaluation: Rigorous evaluation to assess impact and effectiveness. 

3. Practical Tools: Toolkits to optimise the delivery of SEND solutions.

Passionate practitioners and practical programmes are already making a difference in SEND provision - we’re looking for the giants’ shoulders to stand on with our megaphone and contact book.

ASAP backs people and projects with purpose. We believe that impactful, inclusive, and affordable SEND practice should not be the exception. ASAP’s mission is to drive systemic change by supporting and scaling promising models of SEND autonomy - led by those closest to the challenge. If you can show us what works, we’ll help you amplify it.
