V.A.S.E.N TTSS

Founder, V.A.S.E.N TTSS

Hi, I’m Tricia Charles, the founder of V.A.S.E.N Consulting. With over 20 years of experience in Special Educational Needs (SEN), I am dedicated to helping parents, young people, and schools navigate the complexities of the UK SEND system.

I hold a Master’s in Education and Psychology from UCL, and I’m a qualified Learning Support Teacher and SENCo. Over the years, I have worked in London and internationally, leading whole-school SEND provisions and implementing UK SEND legislation. My experience also includes working as a Local Authority Advisory Teacher and EHCP Assessment Officer, where I developed an in-depth understanding of EHCPs, SEND legislation and procedures, and advocacy.

I founded V.A.S.E.N to provide independent, expert support to parents and professionals—ensuring that every child gets the help they need to thrive.

My Qualifications & Expertise

My qualifications and experience allow me to provide specialized, high-quality services in SEN. With my 20+ years of SEN practice across various roles (teaching, managing SEND provision, and providing advisory services), I have a comprehensive understanding of how to support learners with SEN at every stage of their journey.

I’ve worked with a variety of educational systems and cultures, helping schools and families create inclusive environments where learners with SEN can thrive. My experience as a SENCo and Learning Support Centre Head allows me to offer practical solutions, whether it’s adapting curriculum, designing support programs, or navigating the often-complex world of SEN
