Local Offer
- Description
I am a former Teaching Assistant and worked regularly with children with SEND. Dyslexia, Visual Impairments, and extermemely vulnerable children.
My expertise is in dyslexia, visual impairment, low ability literacy, and vulnerable children.
I would always speak to parents before putting strategies in place. Working with the parents / carers I would suggest visiting the GP and link in with the SEN Disability Link Worker at the local Children's Centre.
I would be happy for parents / carers of a child with complex needs to contact me to discuss their individual needs.
