Useful documents

Here are some useful forms for families and school staff to use to monitor and support children with epilepsy.

Take a look at our Guide for Schools for more information on how to support young people with epilepsy in educational settings.

Assessment of Behaviour and Learning in Epilepsy (ABLE)

The ABLE tool helps schools meet their obligations under the Children and Families Act. It has been developed to be used by both teachers and parents.

This questionnaire helps assess a young person’s needs to ensure that they receive the right holistic support. Please ensure that teachers and parents share the results from their completed forms.

ABLE has been developed and trialled with parents and teachers, and is now under-going a formal validation process.
