Inside the hour
60min
Getting back into learning
For a child out of school right now: gentle, pressure-free hours that rebuild the habit.
- They're out of school right now: avoidance, exclusion, or waiting for a placement.
- The word 'school' alone raises the temperature in the room.
- You're worried about them falling behind, but pushing clearly makes things worse.
Tutors who take these hours know school avoidance well. Nothing is forced, and a good first session might just be a puzzle and a chat. That's the point.
Pick and mix
Often mixed with
An hour doesn't have to be one thing. These often sit alongside it: mix a few, change them any time.
How SEND tutoring works
Tell us what you'd like the hours to do
A short, friendly enquiry: your child, your postcode, and what you'd like the hours to cover. We check we can serve your area and hand-pick a vetted, Enhanced-DBS SEND tutor who actually fits. And we're honest if we don't have the right person near you yet.
Your tutor comes to you
One hour, one-to-one, at your home. Sessions are booked around family life: after school, weekends, school holidays. No centre, no travel, no waiting room, just your child at their own kitchen table with someone who gets them.
You hear how it went, every visit
After each hour you get the honest picture: what they worked on, what landed, and what's coming next. And because it's pick and mix, you can change what the hours cover whenever your child needs something different.
Ready when you are

Common questions
My child won't come out of their room. What happens then?
Tutors who take these hours have sat on a lot of landings. Nothing is forced: sometimes the first visits are a chat through a door, or a game with a parent nearby. The pace belongs to your child.
Is this alternative provision or EOTAS?
No, this is private tutoring arranged by you. If your child has an EHCP or the local authority is involved, the hours can sit alongside whatever's being arranged formally, and the tutor's notes are yours to share.
How much does it cost?
£60 an hour online, or £80 an hour in person at your home, and that's the whole price: no registration fee, no agency mark-up, no minimum number of sessions. You pay for the hours you use.
Who are the tutors?
Vetted UK SEND tutors: qualified teachers and specialists chosen for how they work with children like yours. Everyone holds a current Enhanced DBS, verified with the issuer, with qualifications checked against the awarding body before they can take a family.
Do you cover my area?
Tell us where you are when you enquire. We'll be honest straight away if we don't have the right tutor near you yet, rather than matching you with whoever happens to be closest.
Does my child need a diagnosis?
No. Tell us what you're seeing in your own words. Tutors work from how your child actually learns, not from a label.
