Our Services
Consulting
I offer bespoke consultancy services for primary, secondary, post-16, and special education settings. I support multi-academy trusts and local authorities with various issues, including individual or group observations, classroom management, whole school policy, and leadership of culture and ethos. My expertise is in behaviour and SEMH needs, with extensive knowledge of SEN/ALN, including restrictive physical intervention, placement, and the Code of Practice. I also assist schools with conflict resolution involving parents and families.
Training
I design and deliver tailored training in behaviour and SEMH, covering topics such as understanding behaviour, effective behaviour management, communication, emotional load management, and handling difficult conversations with families. I customize training for specific settings and audiences, including senior leaders, teachers, support staff, and non-teaching staff, and have experience delivering these sessions across multiple schools.
Speaking
I offer speaking engagements on various topics related to behaviour and SEMH, similar to those covered in my training sessions. I have presented at Headteacher and Norfolk inclusion conferences, regional SEN/ALN conferences, and to over 400 SENCos. My talks are customized to meet your needs, ensuring they are engaging, challenging, and informative. I provide bespoke, responsive services, working with you to design the necessary activities and approaches to address your specific issues. The support packages are tailored to your requirements.
