What is SEN? How Can We Help?

It is not unusual for young people to experience learning difficulties at some point. For most children, the difficulties are temporary and are soon overcome with help and encouragement.

However, children with Special Educational Needs (SEN) need specialised help to tackle these issues. The term is used to describe a learning difficulty that makes it harder for some children to learn compared to most children of the same age. Children with SEN are likely to need extra or different help from that given to other children their age. This help is known as special educational provision and should be provided by a specialist.

The Education Hotel’s SEN tutors are qualified to provide tailored tuition to suit students’ individual needs. Tutors create tailored programmes for each family, usually starting with an Academic Assessment to determine which areas need to be covered, define the tuition goals and suggest objectives.
