How we help

Every student has their own strengths and hurdles, so we avoid one-size-fits-all teaching. We hire experienced tutors and give them room to teach in their style, with clear goals, short steps and kind accountability. All tutors are interviewed, safeguarding-trained, insured and hold an Enhanced DBS certificate.

Our method

Focused 50-minute sessions with varied tasks, short breaks, and plenty of encouragement. Tutors are experts in their field and teach in their own style. We link strategies back to classwork so progress and confidence translates to school.

Frame-1-1

Assistive technology

Used only where helpful and selected to suit the student. Examples include digital planners and timers, website/app limiters, flashcard and retrieval tools, read-aloud and dictation, screen readers and simple note templates. We help students use tools independently at home and in class.

We are Sunbeam Education, and we look after families and students with special educational needs. We focus on tutoring and coaching with empathy to make your life easier.
