About Lisa

Two Decades of Changing
Young Lives

Lisa Tredler is a specialist teacher and experienced Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO) with over two decades of experience supporting children and families. She works with students across the ability spectrum, with particular depth in supporting those with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and those navigating the Education, Health, and Care Plan (EHCP) process.

Educated at Homerton College, Cambridge, Lisa's approach is grounded in evidence-based practice and shaped by years of working within specialist SEND settings including Langdon College and Yavneh College. She holds the National Award for SEN Coordination and is Level 7 qualified for Assessment Access Arrangements, which means she can identify and secure the right exam support for students who need it.

But Lisa does more than tutor. She helps parents navigate the SEND system — attending school meetings, supporting EHCP applications, and translating professional language into plain English. Parents regularly describe her as the person who finally "got" their child and gave them the confidence to advocate for the support they deserve.

EHCP Advocacy & Parent Support

Navigating the EHCP Process Does Not Have to Be Overwhelming

In Hertfordshire alone, over 98% of EHCP tribunal appeals are decided in favour of parents — yet most families never challenge because they don't know how. Lisa brings professional authority as a qualified SENCO, clarity that cuts through the jargon, and the confidence to help you advocate for your child at every stage.

01

Identifying Whether an EHCP Is Needed

Many parents are unsure whether their child's needs go beyond standard school support. Lisa draws on her SENCO experience to recognise when a child may require additional provision, explains the difference between SEN Support and an EHCP, and helps you decide whether pursuing an EHCP is the right step.

02

Supporting the EHCP Application

Applying for an EHCP can be time-consuming and technical. Lisa guides you through requesting an assessment from the local authority, helps gather evidence — reports, observations, examples of work — and advises on how to describe your child's needs clearly. The result is a structured, evidence-based application that is more likely to succeed.

03

Attending School & SENCO Meetings

Lisa can sit alongside you at school meetings, SEN reviews, and EHCP discussions. She provides professional input, helps you ask the right questions with confidence, and makes sure your child's needs are accurately communicated and not overlooked. You do not have to face those meetings alone.

04

Translating Professional Language

EHCP documents and school reports are often full of technical wording. Lisa explains what everything means in plain English, highlights whether the support being offered is adequate, and helps you understand your child's rights. No more guessing what the paperwork actually says.

05

Ensuring Support Is Delivered

An EHCP is only useful if it is implemented properly. Lisa helps you check that the support written in the plan is actually being delivered, identifies gaps between what was promised and what is happening, and suggests practical strategies for home learning to keep progress on track.

Lisa does not just prepare families behind the scenes. She can sit with you at the table and help make sure your child gets the support they need.
