Improving outcomes for all in education.
I offer transformational coaching to colleagues across the education sector: chief executive officers; headteachers and principals; those in leadership roles; teaching staff; early career teachers; and students in Year 10 and above.
​
Transformational coaching focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behaviour that don’t serve us and taking intentional, meaningful action to build those that do.
​
Using evidence-based methods grounded in psychology and neuroscience, I work with clients who are ready to unlock their potential and to maximise their impact, both personally and professionally.
Unlike instructional coaching, true transformational coaching is a ‘drawing out’ of the thinking, the strengths and the potential that already exists within each of us. Ultimately, this process of exploration is what enables positive, long-lasting change both for the individual and for the organisation as a whole.
I support educators and students with:
Leadership Development
Career and Life Transitions
Vision, Strategy and Planning
Confidence, Self-Worth and Wellbeing
Growth Mindset
Career Progression

Please get in touch with your requirements for more information.
Sessions: Duration and Frequency
Sessions tend to vary between 45 minutes and 90 minutes, as determined by the client or sponsor.
​
Sessions usually take place every 4-6 weeks or once per half-term/term, as per the client's requirements.
​
There is flexibility around session duration and frequency so please do ask for what you need and if I am able to accommodate your request, I will do so.

£100 for a 60-minute session/£150 for a 90-minute session.

A 10% discount is available for MATs or organisations where 5 or more staff are being coached and a 15% discount is offered where 10 or more staff are being coached.
​
Organisations are invoiced at regular intervals once sessions have been completed. You only pay for the coaching you receive.
The Process
Please either get in touch or book in a connection call for an initial conversation to discuss your requirements and how we might work together.
​
If the coaching is being arranged for a client by a sponsor (such as a MAT, a headteacher or principal), a meeting will be requested between the sponsor, the client and myself in order to establish clear boundaries and expectations of the work we'll do together.
All potential clients are also offered an individual 1:1 connection call, prior to their first session.
​
If we agree to proceed, a contract is sent to all parties for signing digitally.
