Supporting local authorities with high-impact tuition

At AdaptEd SEND Tutoring Services, we work in partnership with local authorities to deliver structured, high-expectation, and relationship-driven tuition for students with Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) needs, as well as those with broader SEND requirements.

We don’t just provide “support”—we provide high-quality, specialist teaching that ensures students:
✔️ Engage in learning with clear, structured, and predictable lessons.
✔️ Develop self-regulation and resilience through explicit teaching of social-emotional skills.
✔️ Make measurable academic progress with direct instruction tailored to individual needs.

High-Quality Teaching for Students with SEMH and SEND Needs

We provide one-to-one and small-group tuition for students who:
🔹 Have EHCPs but are awaiting placements.
🔹 Are in Alternative Provision (AP) due to school breakdown or exclusion.

🔹 Are Looked After Children (LAC) in foster care or transitional placements.
🔹 Are unable to access mainstream education but need high-quality teaching.
