Why Do You Need Me?
Few schools can afford to employ an experienced Specialist Teacher on staff, but what if you could have access to one on an ad hoc basis?
As budgets are squeezed ever tighter, the demands of SEN can seem overwhelming, particularly when there are not enough specially trained staff members to go around.
We offer a solution:- specialist support for your teaching staff and pupils when you need it, without the need for a full-time employee or contract.
After an initial consultation, support can be booked by the hour in half termly blocks and tailored to the needs of your pupils and staff.

Testimonials
I have known Diana for over 12 years and her work is exemplary. She has a remarkable ability to read the room, and her nurturing and caring nature ensures that people (both adults and children) are quickly put at ease. With her knowledge and experience she is able to adapt to many challenging situations, especially with SEND.
Over the past year, she has provided a comprehensive assessment service to identify children with dyslexia and other co-occurring difficulties in several of the schools I have worked with. Her reports are thorough, well written and delivered in a timely manner. I would recommend her services.
