A written summary designed to help you advocate for your child with schools and professionals.
This summary is based on personalised tutoring sessions, where I get to know your child’s learning style, strengths, and areas that may need extra support. It’s not a formal report—it’s an overview that can help you build a clearer picture of what’s working and what’s needed.
What’s included
Two or three one-hour 1:1 tutoring sessions
A written Summary highlighting key observations
How it can help
This summary may be useful when preparing for:
School review meetings or SEND discussions
Referral requests (e.g. Speech and Language Therapy, Educational Psychology)
Transition planning (e.g. moving schools or settings)
EHCP applications or annual reviews
Home education records or progress updates
It’s designed to support—not replace—your voice as a parent. You know your child best.
Please note: while the statement can contribute valuable insight, it is not a formal diagnosis or clinical report.
