Mission 

Our goal is to accelerate positive change for pupils and to promote high-performance cultures based on staff development, trust and enjoyment.

Values 

Professional and Invested

We are dedicated to excellence, conducting ourselves with integrity and a deep commitment to your success. 

Practical

Whilst we’re well-versed in theory, our focus is on pragmatic solutions that bring clarity, momentum and tangible benefits. 

Balanced Perspective

We immerse ourselves to understand your organisation thoroughly, yet maintain objectivity to provide honest, constructive feedback.

Accountable

You can rely on us. We are honest, personable and inspiring. When we commit to action, consider it done.

What’s Different About Us?

Empathy and Understanding

We can truly empathise with the challenges school leaders face, offering support that comes from a place of genuine understanding. We have dealt with the parental complaints (at all levels); staffing restructures; suspensions and exclusions; and independent review panels. You name it, we’ve been there too.

Recent, Hands-on Leadership Experience

Our directors have very recent experience as successful headteachers, including navigating Ofsted inspections as recently as September 2023. This gives us current, practical insights that many consultants may lack.

Comprehensive Services

We offer a wide range of services that cover both high-level strategic support and practical operational support, providing a rare blend of big-picture thinking and day-to-day problem-solving. This allows schools to address a multitude of needs through a single, trusted partner who knows them and their school’s specific contextual challenges.

A Balanced Perspective on Performance and Wellbeing

We don’t come down exclusively on one side or the other. Our focus is not exclusively school performance; we are ever mindful of the wellbeing of school leaders and staff too. What we all know is that exceptional performance and wellbeing go hand in hand. This holistic approach to education leadership development is remarkably uncommon (although it is common to see lip service paid to it!).

Value for Money

We know the woeful state your school budgets are in. We’ve been responsible for managing them ourselves for many years. As a small and dynamic company with low overheads, we offer a pricing structure designed to make exceptional services affordable for schools.

These factors collectively position us as a uniquely qualified, empathetic, and comprehensive support system for your educational setting.
