Learning Profiles

With over twenty years experience working with learners of all ages with additional and inclusion needs across maintained, independent and special educational settings as a specialist teacher, researcher, SENCO and assessor, I have developed a deep and holistic understanding of diverse learning needs, educational challenges and effective and practical strategies for support.

I hold an updated Assessment Practising Certificate (APC) and am fully qualified to perform comprehensive diagnostic assessments for dyslexia and screening for dyscalculia for individuals aged 7 and above. As a registered and approved assessor with SASC, PATOSS, and Yorkshire Rose Dyslexia, I uphold the highest standards of professional practice.

Beyond assessments, I serve as a consultant and specialist advisor for local authorities, supporting pupils in EOTAS (Education Other Than At School) programmes. I also deliver tailored training sessions and INSET workshops to empower school staff in creating inclusive environments that foster success for dyslexic learners. For added peace of mind, I am listed on the DBS update service.

With a warm, professional and empathetic approach, I am committed to making the assessment process a positive and affirming journey. From start to finish, I will guide and support you, ensuring a productive experience that empowers learners and celebrates their potential.
