Hi, my name is Clare Ashton.

I have worked in primary schools for 20 years and been a teacher for 12 years. I studied English at University and got interested in teaching and SEN and that is where the journey began.

I have always wanted to advocate and help pupils achieve their best by encouraging and guiding.

I have studied to become an assessor for two years and the journey was long but so worthwhile.

I am looking forward to helping you and your family the best I can.
