Hello!

My name is Leigh and I have been teaching since 2005. I have a husband and three children.

Two of my children find school challenging. This is not to say they are not bright children; they just find it incredibly difficult to read and write.

Throughout my children’s primary school years, they have struggled to read, do homework and study for exams. As the years have passed, I realised the need to help children like mine as there are very few high schools that offer remedial support / concessions with small classes of no more than 10 children in a class.

It all happened three years ago in 2015 when I was talking to an occupational therapist. She expressed how therapists are really battling to find a place for children who suffer with delayed learning.

And that is where my journey started!

I decided there and then that I needed to make a difference. I needed to help these children learn in a kind, loving and caring environment.

There had to be a better way to make learning fun for these children who constantly battle at school.

I knew that there were many parents who felt just like I did:

In January 2019, Little Oaks Remedial School was born.

We have grown in leaps and bounds with the most amazing teachers, staff, children and parents who absolutely make Little Oaks Remedial School what it is today.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story.

Much Love
Leigh
