Coaching, training and support for schools
Transform conversations
with a coaching approach
Coaching transforms the way leaders listen, support and empower their teams. The result? A stronger team, greater collaboration and space for leaders to focus on what matters most.
I work with schools that want to strengthen leadership, build collaboration and create cultures where conversations unlock potential.
From insight to impact
Support is designed for the realities of school life. It blends insight with practice, so you and your team walk away not just inspired but equipped to put learning into action straight away.
Why invest in developing a coaching approach?
Using a coaching approach in schools strengthens relationships, eases pressure, boosts performance and helps keep your best people.
This creates a culture where…
• Staff feel supported and valued
• Leaders listen deeply and respond with care and clarity
• Teams collaborate to solve challenges effectively
• The school community feels trusted, motivated and energised
Ready to build a team that thrives?
Through practical training and coaching, we’ll create simple, sustainable shifts that energise your team and lighten your leadership load.
Let’s start with a conversation.
The right support, at the right time
The Coaching Approach Programme
A practical, hands-on course that builds coaching confidence and skills across your team.
Ideal for anyone responsible for developing others.
Group Coaching
Reflective, collaborative sessions that turn shared challenges into stronger relationships and clearer direction.
Ideal for middle and senior leadership teams.
1:1 Coaching
Confidential, personalised support to help you think clearly, lead intentionally and stay resilient throughout the school year.
Ideal for headteachers and senior leaders.
Many schools start with the Coaching Approach Programme, then build on it with Group or 1:1 Coaching.
When combined, these create lasting change across your team.
Together, we can create a bespoke package that works for your school’s goals, context and priorities.
