We’re Terry and Caroline, educational support and SEND consultants.
Meet the team
We are Terry and Caroline, an educational duo dedicated to nurturing the holistic educational growth of each pupil by improving pupil engagement and achievement.
With over 55 years combined experience in this field, we work collaboratively to motivate parents, teachers, and pupils to improve educational outcomes for all through targeted skill acquisition and shared learning experiences.
After gaining extensive experience in both state schools and in the private sector, we have become increasingly aware that the landscape of education is constantly changing, placing higher expectations on educators, parents, and pupils. Having experienced the negative impact this cycle has on the self-esteem and confidence of everyone involved, we felt compelled to act. Our primary concern has been the lack of pupil perseverance, resilience, and motivation to learn.
We have a deep commitment to fostering positive change through collaboration and shared expertise, and helping it gain momentum.
The values we stand for:
Approachability: We’re approachable and inspire through collaborative teaching to support parents, educators, and pupils.
Building Connections: We place emphasis on establishing meaningful connections built on trust, respect, and shared success.
Inclusivity: We strive to create an inclusive environment, believing that everyone should have equal access to educational resources.
Responsibility: We take responsibility for delivering excellence in our work and actions, and we stand by our services.
Simplicity: Our services are designed to empower and engage through straightforward skill procurement. We prioritise clear communication.
