Andrew’s knowledge of the world of education is second to none. His opinions and insights are always thought-provoking and sometimes controversial. His ideas never fail to encourage lively debate among delegates.

Andrew has a deep and broader understanding of what makes a good school efficient and an efficient school great. Whether in the economics of timetabling and staffing or the mechanics of capital development, whether reforming working practices or restructuring provision, whether raising standards among pupils or staff, whether building a culture of responsibility and self-improvement, or cultivating a community in which individuals are taught to share common, higher goals for the good of society, Andrew has valuable and original insights to offer. From the nuts and bolts to the big picture, there is no better school leader to have on your side.

Andrew is highly skilled at getting to the heart of the matter quickly and sensitively, whether it be educational, managerial, cultural or financial. Andrew’s abilities to monitor, evaluate and give clear unambiguous messages have been of considerable benefit to the quality of services we provide and to many schools.

Excellent: the advice was fantastic and has really motivated me.

Well prepared, up-to-date, relevant and informative.

I have benefited inestimably from the skills, insights, practices and above all the vision which Andrew articulates. I would recommend Andrew to all those who wish to be challenged, inspired and motivated in their work. He has a sense of education which is clear, effective and which was found to be outstanding by OFSTED on four consecutive occasions.

I am most grateful for your skills, knowledge and commitment which have ensured that our school is now moving in the right direction and out of Special Measures’.

Many thanks for a splendid INSET on Friday. We have had very positive feedback and are now planning to move things forward. You were a fine catalyst.
