Hello, I’m Claire.
With over 20 years’ experience in education, I specialise in helping children with dyslexia understand how they learn and build confidence.
I’m a Bristol-based specialist assessor, qualified with a Diploma in Dyslexia Assessment and Intervention (AMBDA), and an approved practitioner with PATOSS. I’ve supported families across Bristol for many years, providing clear, practical guidance they can trust.
Why choose Strive?
Choosing the right support for your child can feel overwhelming — especially when you’re trying to make sense of how they learn and what they need next.
At Strive, the focus is always on understanding the whole child, not just the challenges they face.
As both a parent of a neurodiverse child and someone who is dyslexic myself, I understand first-hand the effort children put in every day — and how important it is to feel supported, not judged.
I provide calm, personalised assessments in a relaxed home environment, helping children feel at ease so they can show their true abilities.
Each assessment is thorough and clearly identifies your child’s unique learning profile — highlighting both strengths and areas for support.
You’ll come away not just with answers, but with clear, practical next steps and the confidence to support your child moving forward both at home and in school.

What people say
Jenny M
Claire carried out a Dyslexia Assessment on my daughter. My daughter was super nervous but all went smoothly and she wasn’t stressed or dysregulated during or after the assessment.
A thorough in-depth report was received post assessment with lots of helpful information and advice on how to support our daughter with the challenges she faces going forward.
Thank you so much.

Claire completed a lot of research before the assessment which meant I was reassured she had understood my son’s situation well in advance. On the day of the assessment she made him feel comfortable and we then received a comprehensive follow up report and phone chat for any questions. I’d definitely recommend Strive and felt confident that Claire’s assessment gave us all the information we needed.
