Helping every child believe they can succeed

Primary SEN Consultancy was founded with one goal: to give every child the chance to thrive — not just academically, but emotionally and personally too.

We know that even the most passionate teachers are often held back by limited resources, tight budgets, and a curriculum that doesn’t always leave room for individual learning styles. Too often, children with Special Educational Needs (SEN) are not given the space or support they need to truly shine.

That is why we created Primary SEN Consultancy — to offer personalised, one-to-one tutoring and well being interventions that meet your child exactly where they are. We work with how your child learns and responds best, building on their strengths and supporting their challenges in a way that is engaging, meaningful and encouraging. We hand pick our tutors and services for their expertise, knowledge, skills and proven track record of impact.

As the founder of Primary SEN Consultancy, I bring over 30 years of experience as a SENCO, senior leader, dyslexia assessor and tutor in the UK and in an international setting. I continue to work in a large primary school setting staying current with the latest educational research and practices. This ongoing professional development allows me to guide and develop our team of tutors, ensuring they have the skills and knowledge to provide the best possible support to your child. Working daily with parents of pupils with special educational needs allows me to genuinely understand and empathise with the challenges and anxieties they face—both now and as they look to the future.

At the heart of everything we do is a belief that every child can make progress, and that with the right support they will reach their outcomes and goals. Our tutors focus on building confidence, fostering independence, and helping children start believing in themselves — because that’s what every parent wants.

When children feel understood, supported and capable, learning becomes something they enjoy — and that’s where real progress begins.
