special educational needs expert training & advocacy
London
Following a joint venture in setting up a local SEN parents' group in 2002,
Claire joined IPSEA, a renowned national charity, as a volunteer telephone
advisor and later a Tribunal Support Service Representative. Claire says: “One
of the most valuable lessons I learned was the fundamental importance of using
the law to secure, and if necessary, enforce rights to ensure that children and
young people receive the special educational provision they are entitled to. I
have been privileged to advise and support many families over the years and I am
incredibly passionate about children and young people with SEND receiving the
education they are entitled to”. This led Claire to successfully complete her
LLB Law (1st class) and Higher Diploma in Paralegal Practice in 2011.
