Feedback like this from parents is our 'why'

Why we are passionate about supporting young people on our EOTAS Tutoring: Education Otherwise Than at School.

We have had some lovely feedback for our Tutor who supported a young person through our SEND Tutoring programme.

"I am writing to express my sincere gratitude and admiration for your colleague, Tutor ‘S’, who has been my child’s home tutor for the past nine months.�
From the very beginning, S showed remarkable patience, dedication, and professionalism. For the first month or two, my child would not speak to them at all. Many people may have found this discouraging, but S never gave up. They continued to turn up with kindness, consistency, and determination, working incredibly hard to build trust and connection with them.�

My child is autistic, has ADHD, a significant attachment disorder, and a number of other complex needs. Forming relationships can be extremely challenging for them, yet none of these barriers stopped S from working what can only be described as magic. Through their perseverance, understanding, and exceptional skill, they gradually helped them feel safe and valued.

Today, the transformation is incredible. My child chats happily with S, has developed a wonderful relationship with them, and genuinely looks forward to their sessions. They have become an important and positive part of their educational journey, and S’ impact on their confidence and engagement cannot be overstated.

S has been nothing short of exceptional. Their compassion, resilience, and ability to connect with a child who faces significant challenges are truly remarkable. We feel incredibly fortunate to have had their support, and I want to ensure their outstanding work is recognised.�

Please pass on our heartfelt thanks to S for everything they have done. They have made a lasting difference to my child’s life and education, and for that our family will always be grateful."

14/08/2026

A young person can appear settled, engaged and well-behaved in school, while using every ounce of energy they have to hold things together.

Then they get home.

The anxiety comes out.
The frustration comes out.
The shutdown comes out.
The tears come out.

And sometimes, when a child’s needs aren’t being met, anxiety fills the gaps.

It can show up as avoidance, perfectionism, anger, withdrawal, people-pleasing or simply not wanting to come into school at all.

That’s why looking beyond the behaviour matters.

Instead of only asking:

“How do we manage this behaviour?”

Perhaps we also need to ask:

“What is this behaviour telling us?”

💭 Are we seeing more anxiety in younger pupils?

💭 Are some children masking their difficulties in school?

💭 And how can we better recognise the signs before they become overwhelming?

What does “they’re fine in school” look like in your setting? Chat with us below
