V.A.S.E.N Education, Health, Care Plan Services
As a Local Authority SEND Officer, I have developed expert knowledge in SEND. I have written over 200 new Education, Health and Care Plans and amended over 100 EHCPs following Annual Review meetings. I completed over 200 co-production meetings with parents and schools, to ensure that the contents of the draft EHCP reflects the learner. As a Case Officer, I have processed numerous EHCP assessment requests, hundreds of reports submitted by external professionals, parents and school to support EHCP requests and I sat in on and contributed to SEND Assessment Panel as a Specialist Teacher. I have also represented the Local Authority in Mediation, and supported schools and parents through 'Next steps' meetings. I understand what is required to get your learner the right level of support to allow them to make progress towards their outcomes.

V.A.S.E.N Post 16 Planning
As a qualified teacher (QTS), with over 15 years experience in classroom, I am confident in my ability to provide bespoke tuition programmes for learners with EHCPs. I have delivered a range of alternative qualifications to GCSEs, more suited to learners with special needs and personalised outcomes. I have taught Functional Skills, BTEC Workskills, ASDAN to name a few. My planning and delivery focusses on your aspirations and your needs.

Tuition is virtual, and depending on your location, we can offer face-to-face tuition.
