You want the best for your child. You want to know they have been able to reach
their fullest potential. My motto ‘no child left behind’ resonates with all
families who have faced delays or denials to services. I taught for over 17
years and was a Head of Year to over 360 children, but I left my mainstream
position to forge a better pathway when my son was 12 weeks old: I’ve not looked
back since. During the pandemic I witnessed many children suffering with speech
regression, especially my autistic families. I decided to undertake training in
Speech and Language Therapy and Occupational Therapy for which I obtained a
‘High Distinction’ and in 2021 I successfully completed a MSc in Psychology
(specialising in SEN) which informs my work. I am also registered with the BPS
(British Psychological Society). Recently, ‘The Learn to Shine school’ appeared
on the BBC after winning the ‘Making a Difference’ BBC award. I have extensive
experience of working with and supporting children with Autism, PDA, foetal
alcohol syndrome, Selective Mutism, ADHD, Dyslexia, complex emotional and
behavioural difficulties, with significant results. It is essential to me that
your child is nurtured as an individual, and given the correct tools for the
rest of their life. I support numerous companies as an SEN consultant and
currently advise Talent management The YMU group on neurodiversity. I am often
interviewed for magazines and radio stations on SEN matters and want to dispel
the myths out there! I created ‘Learn to Shine school CIC’ around the birth of
my own little boy and girl. I know how hard parenting can be, and the challenges
families face in the world of education, My passion is to enable every child,
including my own, to be able to ‘Shine’.
