Helping children with SEND thrive — and helping families understand what to do next

Specialist SEND consultancy, dyslexia assessment and individualised tuition for children and families.

Whether you are worried about your child's progress, struggling to understand the support they should be receiving at school, considering a dyslexia assessment or simply unsure what to do next, I can help.

I'm Andi Harley, an experienced SENDCo, specialist dyslexia assessor and SEND consultant with over 20 years' experience in education and a Master's degree in Special Educational Needs and Disabilities.

My approach is practical, personal and child-centred. I'll help you understand your child's needs, identify the right next steps and work with you — and, where appropriate, their school — to ensure they receive the support they need.

Perhaps you know something isn't quite right — but you're not sure what to do next.

Your child may be struggling with learning, losing confidence or finding school increasingly difficult. You may be wondering about dyslexia or another additional need, or perhaps you feel the support currently in place isn't working.

You don't need to know exactly what support you need before contacting me.

We can talk through what's happening, what support your child is currently receiving and what your options might be. Sometimes you may need an assessment or ongoing support; sometimes you may simply need someone experienced to help you make sense of everything and work out the next step.

Meet Andi

I'm Andi Harley, an experienced SENDCo, specialist dyslexia assessor, teacher and SEND consultant with over 20 years' experience in education.

I've worked closely with children, families and schools throughout my career, and hold a Master's degree in Special Educational Needs and Disabilities alongside my specialist qualifications in dyslexia assessment.

What matters most to me is looking beyond a child's difficulties to understand the whole child — their strengths, their needs and what will genuinely help them succeed. My advice is always practical, honest, sensitive and individual to the child and family I'm working with.

As both an education professional and a parent with personal experience of navigating SEND, I understand how overwhelming it can feel when you're trying to work out what your child needs and how best to support them.
