Chapter 2
How a shadow teacher or special educator helps
A remedial tutor or special educator for a child with a learning disability delivers structured literacy and numeracy programmes at home or online, helps the family and school arrange the accommodations the child is entitled to, and reports monthly on progress against agreed targets.
Chapter 3 · Where our role ends
A learning disability is identified and certified by a qualified psychologist or hospital team, not by us. We help families find the right assessor where needed, and our tutors work to the resulting report.
Chapter 4
Your child's team, working as one
With your consent, we build the child-support profile with the school and with any therapist, psychologist or paediatrician already involved, so the professional arrives knowing the plan rather than guessing at it. Monthly reports go to you, and to them if you wish.
