“Genevieve is professional, organised and a great teacher. My son has improved a lot since she began teaching him. He looks forward to her lessons and asks every day when she will be coming next”

“Genevieve has been a lifeline for my daughter. Absolute professional and a clear specialist in SEND. My daughter gelled with Genevieve as soon as they met and absolutely loves the activities they do together. Highly recommend!”

— Louisa, Parent

“Our son is nine years old with severe autism and severe learning difficulties. In the course of his life he has encountered many, many teachers and experts on special needs. However, there is one teacher who stands out in his mind separate from all the others – his beloved Miss McNamara. Genevieve is really quite remarkable for her expertise, wisdom, energy and enthusiasm. We knew her for many years as Ezra‘s teacher. Now, we are delighted that she has set up a special-needs consultancy. Working with us, she has done her usual amazing work generating ideas for things such as food play. Furthermore, she has helped us enormously in finding a good secondary school for our son. We found it incredibly confusing searching for secondary schools. Each school has its own website, with a completely different set of statements and requirements. We really had no idea how our son matched a particular school, and which would be best for him. In addition, we found that most primary teachers are naturally focused on teaching, and have very little real knowledge of what secondary schools are on offer. Genevieve did amazing research and helped us whittle down a huge confusing mess of names to just a few, based not just on Ofsted ratings – but on whether they were right for our son. In doing this, she has made a huge contribution to his future welfare for which we are very grateful.

Whatever you are looking for for your special needs child, we really think you won’t find a better person to start with than Genevieve.”

“Genevieve is an excellent SEND teacher; she set up a successful provision for children with Autism and led a team that enabled pupils to make accelerated progress in both academic and EHCP targets. She has also contributed to the development of effective SEND provision across the whole school, identifying areas of improvement and supporting staff through training and individual support sessions. Genevieve has a high level of understanding, commitment and passion for SEND teaching and learning and for achieving excellent outcomes for all of the children she teaches.”

— Vicki Cuff, Executive Headteacher

Genevieve is a dedicated, caring and supportive person who always goes above and beyond her role. As the Assistant SENCO and SEND teacher of the SEND provision she provided life changing skills and experiences to myself, the children and other members of staff! Genevieve is passionate and always looks for innovative and creative ways to engage the children. She tailors to their unique personalities and interests as well as ensuring their targets and EHCP goals are met.

As my line manager she created a team that delivered only the best and I am eternally grateful to have worked with her. Genevieve shared her knowledge and helped me grow from a SEN LSA to a SEN Lead Practitioner and is attentive to the smallest detail.
