It has been a busy time since the start of this academy year. Delighted to be supporting a school and a trust as they consider their custom and practice.

Pleased to be working with another board looking at strengths and areas for development. Good conversations with governors as I start the External Review.

Freeing up my diary after half term means I am available to schools or trusts who need an external review. Happy to have no obligation conversations. Do get in touch.

Pleased to spend the day with a very receptive board discussing my review report. Then followed some induction training as 5 new governors have joined this term.

No matter how small your contribution was, it is always pleasing to see a school you worked with receive an outstanding all areas Ofsted report.

An 'in person meeting' this afternoon with a CoG to help them with their action plan following my External Review of Governance at their school. Samples of visit forms were also shared. I will be attending their away day next month.
