Special Education & Learning Support

Reading, writing and maths come harder to some children — not because they aren't trying or aren't bright, but because their brains are wired to learn a little differently. If your child is slipping behind at school, dreading homework, or being called 'lazy' when you know they're working twice as hard, a learning assessment can help you understand what's going on and shape a plan. With patient, structured teaching built around how your child learns best, many children make steady progress over time — and slowly start to feel more confident again.

Signs parents notice

Sound familiar?

Reading well below class level — guessing words, skipping lines, reading slowly and reluctantly
Letters or numbers reversed or jumbled well past the early years (b/d, was/saw, 6/9)
Spelling that changes line to line; messy, effortful, sometimes painful handwriting
Maths that won't stick — counting on fingers, muddling place value, dreading sums
Bright in conversation but underperforming on paper, with 'careless' labels from school
Homework meltdowns, avoidance, or growing worry about going to school

One tick is enough of a reason to ask. Two or more — book a check.

How we help

  • A learning assessment that looks closely at where reading, writing or maths is breaking down
  • A written individualised education plan (IEP) with clear, realistic goals you understand
  • Structured, multisensory remedial teaching (Orton-Gillingham-informed) for reading, spelling and maths
  • School-readiness work on pre-academic skills — attention, sequencing, phonological awareness, pencil control
  • Coordination with your child's school, class teacher and shadow teacher so support stays consistent
  • Honest guidance on when a formal psychoeducational assessment or paediatric review is worth seeking

What a session looks like

  • 1One-to-one teaching pitched to your child's level, so they can experience success early and often
  • 2Multisensory methods — see it, say it, build it, write it — not worksheets alone
  • 3Small steps with lots of revision, and confidence tracked as closely as skills
  • 4Parents kept in the loop with simple home practice and regular, plain-language progress updates

Common questions

Can special education cure dyslexia?
No. Dyslexia, dyscalculia and dysgraphia are lifelong differences in how the brain processes information — not illnesses to be cured. The right structured teaching and strategies, though, help children read, write and learn far more comfortably and confidently. We stay honest about progress and never promise a 'fix'.
Do you give a formal diagnosis?
Specific learning disabilities are formally diagnosed through a psychoeducational assessment by a clinical or educational psychologist, often alongside a paediatric review. We screen, teach and support — and will guide you to the right professional when a formal assessment or certification is needed.
Will this clash with what school is doing?
The opposite — we coordinate with your child's class teacher and shadow teacher so home, school and our sessions pull in the same direction. With your consent we share the IEP and progress notes, so everyone supporting your child stays aligned.
