The wonderful world of SEND

At Powertutors, we understand the challenges that parents of children with SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) face on a daily basis. We understand that there are different requirements for these students and that many will be taught at home due to their specific needs. We also understand that many children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities will need specially tailored additional support. That helps them feel understood in a world not structured for them.

Providing your child with the support they need to reach their full potential is incredibly important. This is why we want share with you more about the wonderful world of SEND and how a tutor can help your child succeed.

What is SEND

SEND is focused on ages 0-18 and covers a wide range of conditions, including but not limited to:

• Dyslexia
• ADHD
• Autism
• Sensory processing disorder
• OCD

Each child is unique, and their needs vary depending on their condition. According to the UK Government, as of 2022, there are just under 1.5 million students in England with SEND. This number is continuously on the rise, so if your child is a SEND student, it’s important to remember you’re not alone.
