Every child should have the chance to thrive. With the right support, they can.
Drawing on over 30 years of SEND and inclusion leadership experience, I help schools and families create an environment where every child feels supported, included, and empowered to reach their full potential.

In my 30+ years of teaching and leading, I've only ever had one rule: the child comes first.
I'm Shukri, a teacher of 30 years. For most of that time, I've led SEND and Inclusion as a department head in schools around the world.
I've built SEND departments from scratch in very different schools, across very different countries and cultures. The systems matter, but the starting point never changes: see the children first, then build everything around them.
That's what Child First Education is all about.
Whether I'm advising a leadership team, training your teachers, or sitting down with your child for a private tutoring session, you get the same expertise and the same belief: every child can learn when the support fits them.
Not sure where to start? Let's start with a conversation.
Tell me what's happening in your school or with your child. I'll listen, share how I'd approach it, what it'll cost, and whether I can help.
