How PawSteps works for your school
Three steps: you assign animal-based learning and wellbeing, pupils complete it, and PawSteps turns it into evidence — the Ofsted, EYFS and SEND record you already have to produce. Bought from budgets you already hold.

Assign
In the Classroom, set up a class and assign resources in a click — a care guide, a curriculum lesson, a quiz, a wellbeing journey, a social story. Like a mark-book for animal-based learning.
See the Classroom →Complete
Pupils work through their tasks and a daily wellbeing check-in — earning badges as they go. Staff see who’s done what on a live progress board; parents get a friendly window in too.
See the pupil view →Evidence
One click turns it all into an Ofsted / EYFS-PSED / SEND impact report — wellbeing trends, engagement, and a dated follow-up trail for the graduated approach. The thing you have to evidence, done for you.

PawSteps is unusual — it legitimately draws on four school funding pots. Most schools use the SEND budget, because the impact report is ready-made graduated-approach evidence.
💚 SEND notional budget
£6,000Schools fund the first £6,000 of a pupil’s SEND support from this. The follow-up flags, notes and SEND report are exactly the evidence it’s meant to produce.
📈 Pupil premium
£1,515Per disadvantaged primary pupil (2025/26). Funds wellbeing, engagement and attendance interventions — a clean fit for the journey.
🌱 Pastoral / wellbeing
The CAMHS-wait bridge — something safe a TA or therapist can start today while a child waits for support.
📚 Curriculum
Comprehension, knowledge organisers, lessons and quizzes — everyday teaching content from the core curriculum budget.
Simple, whole-school pricing
One annual licence, all staff, unlimited pupils. No per-pupil counting. Small enough for a SENCO or business manager to approve on their own.
Pay by invoice against a purchase order — no card needed. MAT and framework purchasing (G-Cloud / CCS / YPO / ESPO) on request.
