“Tom worked with our school providing EP support and advice for many years. He built positive, professional relationships with staff offering new ideas and classroom strategies to ensure the right provision was in place for children with SEND. He worked hard to support children and their families, sensitively communicating information with parents to aid their understanding.

Staff found his expertise and knowledge invaluable; he delivered high quality training that was always well received and useful. His calm and thoughtful approach gave staff confidence to discuss concerns, safe in the knowledge that he would understand and impart helpful suggestions.”
