About Us
Valley Tuition was developed to support those who struggle to access education in a traditional way as well as to provide extra support to those within mainstream school. We work collaboratively with Parents/Carers and Schools to remove barriers to learning with our inclusive practices. We are passionate about engaging students and supporting those with SEND and SEMH. We want to ensure every child and young person can reach their own potential socially, emotionally and educationally. We aim to provide flexible additional support, with tailored interventions to suit individual need.
Highly Qualified Educators
We know that learning is easier when you have an excellent teacher. That's why our educators have achieved a minimum of Level 3 in Teaching and Learning or hold an advanced degree in their field. All staff hold an enhanced Dbs certificate, NSPCC Safeguarding and Prevent Government training. Our tutors have many years SEN experience and are passionate about the subjects they teach and bring this enthusiasm into their lessons. We are constantly seeking to improve our knowledge with continuous professional development.

Emotional Based School Avoidance
EBSA
EBSA is experienced by 1-5% of the school population. Until recently, little was known about EBSA, resulting in more and more young people missing education. Our Educational Manager is an EBSA trained practitioner with many years of experience. She is able to support with gradual school re integrations and tuition.
What we do
English and Maths Functional Skills
In collaboration with Pass Functional Skills, we support learners to achieve their Functional Skills qualification. We are able to assess learners to match them with the most suitable level of qualification before commencing any sessions. Alternatively, we can guide learners to the correct online course, adding 1-1 tuition sessions as and when required. Once a learner has completed the course, usually around 55 hours of learning, the examinations can be booked through Valley Tuition or PFS.

Specialist Tuition and Mentoring
We provide 1-1 tuition sessions for children and young people aged between 6-18 yrs for all key stage subjects.
We specialise in targeted interventions for SEN students whilst improving self esteem and confidence.
We are passionate about reframing the narrative around Emotional Based School Avoidance, meeting young people where they are at socially and emotionally. Our approach builds trusting foundations to support individuals to move forward in whatever direction that may be.
Testimonials
* Our daughter loves her sessions with Sam! She still says she hates maths in school, but we are starting to see less anxiety/sadness at home which is what we were aiming for. I’m sure this is because she is gaining confidence in your sessions. (Parent -Year 4).
* I highly recommend Valley Tuition. My daughter loves attending her weekly sessions and Sam and Hannah are extremely professional and friendly. Thank you. (Parent- Year 9)
* Sam has been tutoring my daughter who is in Year 11 since August last year. She has gained a lot of confidence since scoring badly in her mocks. Sam explains things in a way that she remembers them. She has really benefited from 1-1 lessons, and I can highly recommend Valley Tuition. (Parent- Year 11)
*We just wanted to say how impressed we were. I honestly didn’t know what to expect as like I said today, we’ve tried so many activities etc that profess to be inclusive and understand SEND etc but are terrible and just don’t get it. What you’re both doing is amazing 😄
