Children Looked After

Increasing pressure is being placed on local authority to provide provisions for young people in care as well as those with a EHCP. Children in care require greater levels of tutor matching to ensure positive outcomes.

Parent Partnership

Our Senior Coordinators are vastly experienced having gained decades of experience in SEN education, children's homes and SEN recruitment. Coordinators liaise with and maintain regular contact with parents/carers and local authorities. Educ8SEN will aim to promote parent and pupil partnership to encourage ownership and participation in the teaching and learning process. Regular parent/carer feedback is encouraged to ensure a high standard of delivery and satisfaction of service provision.

One to One and Group Tuition

A growing body of evidence suggests one to one tuition to be the most effective catch up intervention strategy available. However both one to one and small group tuition have proved effective approaches. 

Tuition is guided by the school and linked to the curriculum. Tutors work with teachers and students focussing on areas of most benefit allowing fro additional practise and feedback

In the Community or Home

Specific cases may require after school or weekend one to one or group tuition programmes. Particularly with low-attaining or disadvantaged students. Studies have shown extended school hours to have a positive impact on attendance and behaviour. Academically out of school hours tuition can account for 2+ months of progression.

We can assist by providing QTS tutors and support staff for after school and weekend tuition.

Targets and Progress Reporting

When required, our tutors undertake baseline assessments identifying areas of need. Targets with agreed upon time frames are set from the outset. These targets are agreed upon and stated in the pupil, parent & tutor agreement, signed by all, providing ownership to parents and learners. Reports are submitted weekly which cover engagement, attendance and any safeguarding issues encountered. After sessions Coordinators are verbally updated and issues reported immediately. Termly reports are supplied to measure academic attainment against targets.

Online Tuition

Certain situations may require location flexibility. Our online tuition platforms allow for flexibility and interactivity, updating parents on workflow post session, giving more control of the process.
While online platforms are not the preferred method of tuition, some learners who struggle with in-person social interaction may benefit from this as a preferred method of tution.

- Assessment and Case Coordinator

"A professional agency who have a flexible and can do attitude in meeting the needs of our children and young people with SEN often at short notice. They are the first agency that comes to mind when I am asked to find a tutor as they offer a high quality service along with good value for money. The welfare of the children and young people is of paramount importance so safeguarding is high on their agenda. The quality of the tutors provided is second to none and they offer an outstanding service with clear feedback and reports. We are also provided with great feedback from parents and young people about the tutors provided. Maria is a true professional who is easy to talk to and I always feel confident that she understands exactly what I need. I frequently recommend Educ8SEN to other professionals."

 

-EHC Coordinator

"Educ8SEN is a wonderful resource for Local Authority's to buy into and with Maria at the helm we always know that we are going to get a professional, flexible, friendly and committed response to our referral for young people who are difficult to place in college or other educational and vocational pathways. Our pupils have achieved good outcomes and the matching of pupils and tutors is always carefully considered based on the pupils needs, provision, personality and aspirations. Feedback from the young people and their families has been great too Thank you Educ8SEN for all your support to our young people!

 


- Senior SEND Coordinator

Feedback received from multiple families of the young people receiving service from Educ8SEN was that Maria was contactable at all times so that families and professionals could ask her questions, get her opinion, offer ideas, and give feedback. Maria and Educ8SEN's passion was reflective - she ensured that her service was person centred, and sought to ensure that the tutors qualities were shaped around the individual rather than the other way around. 


 

- Send Team

Working Hard, showing professional integrity, having a can-do/positive attitude and an optimistic outlook are all qualities that Maria has shown and this has had a positive effect on those accessing her services and it has provided reassurance to practitioners seeking her services, that the individuals will have access to a service which promotes the social values we all strive for.

 

- Social Worker

I have had a really positive experience through establishing contact with Maria, as a result of a sixteen year old boy who had been out of school due to permanent exclusion, and he received home tutoring through Educ8SEN.
