Our story
We were set up by two former SEND classroom teachers who kept seeing the same pattern: a child with an EHCP, out of school, waiting months for provision to be arranged. RS Professional exists to shorten that wait — without lowering the bar.
Mission
An EHCP is a legal document. When it says 1:1 specialist tuition, the child is entitled to a tutor who genuinely holds that specialism. Our contribution to the system is to make that a reliable reality — quickly, kindly, and to an audit-ready standard.
We are not a marketplace. Every tutor on our register has been personally interviewed, observed teaching, and matched by a human. We think that matters.
Values
We do what the research and the child in front of us tell us to do — not what is fashionable. Low-arousal approaches, structured teaching, and PDA-informed practice are non-negotiable.
A child with SEND has often had a hundred professionals through the door. We give them one tutor, and we keep that tutor.
The paperwork commissioners need is a floor, not a ceiling. But we never let paperwork slow a placement down.
When progress stalls, we say so. When our approach isn't working, we change it. When a placement isn't right, we replace the tutor without fuss.

Leadership
Our senior team teaches. It's the only way we know to stay honest about what the work actually asks of a tutor.
