Our team is continually developing our practice in response to emerging needs within education and across our schools.
To support our schools, we provide consultancy-based advice across all areas of SEND, offering either strategic guidance on whole school priorities or greater depth involvement through our project‑based work.
What do we mean by consultancy support?
Consultancy support involves working collaboratively with schools to apply psychological knowledge in meaningful, practical ways.
Schools can draw on our expertise to inform any aspect of their development planning, considering whole‑school priorities, policies or curriculum development.
Consultancy support ensures that schools can:
- Apply psychological perspectives to shape strategic priorities and development planning, embedding psychologically informed practice across whole‑school polices, systems and culture.
- Ensure all approaches are informed by current understanding of child and adolescent development, learning, wellbeing and inclusion.
- Strengthen whole‑school approaches to SEND, ensuring consistent, inclusive practice across a whole school.
Consultancy questions our schools have asked:
- What does a curriculum that fosters intrinsic motivation and meaningful engagement in learning look like?
- How can classroom approaches be designed to promote independence, self‑regulation and lifelong learning skills?
- How can a school’s ethos and values be consistently embedded so that all children and families experience a strong sense of belonging?
- How should schools approach staff wellbeing in a sustainable and impactful way?
- How can schools strengthen home–school relationships and increase positive, collaborative parental engagement?
- What does research suggest about knowledge‑based and skills‑based curricula, and how can schools make informed decisions when designing their curriculum balance?
Costing: Consultancy support can be planned over a half day or full day support, depending upon need.
Our Projects
We offer project‑based support for schools and settings that wish to focus on a specific area of development in greater depth.
Schools can work in partnership with us to co-develop a bespoke project aligned with their whole‑school development plan or select from our existing projects, which have been designed in response to current and emerging needs across our schools.
Our current projects are:
The delivery of our projects combines consultancy support with staff training and coaching, alongside the implementation of assessment and evaluation measures to monitor impact and inform ongoing development.
