Every day, I am inspired by the dedication, selflessness, and relentless pursuit of excellence that I see in school leaders.
Their work is not just a job; it’s a calling—a commitment to shaping the future, one student at a time. Yet, I also understand the immense challenges they face. The pressures are many, the stakes are high, and the path can often feel lonely.
With a diverse background in the private sector, I bring a unique perspective to coaching in education. My experience working with senior leaders and teams, guiding those transitioning into leadership, and supporting individuals at the start of their careers has equipped me with valuable insights into the dynamics of leadership across different contexts. This breadth of experience allows me to offer school leaders fresh perspectives and innovative approaches, grounded in proven strategies from both education and business.

“As headteachers – we rarely get time to consider ourselves and our own CPD. The time I’ve spent with my coach has been invaluable. I liked that she was not from the education world and that she was able to give me a variety of tools that I am now able to use with my own team to improve our communication and how effectively we run our phases within the school. ”
