Let customers speak for us
from 75 reviewsAlex was very professional throughout the session. Alex was very personable and the staff were engaged throughout the session. Session supported teachers in their thinking around subject leadership. The teachers left the session in a positive mood. The session will feed well into the further training sessions we have planned for the coming terms
I have just watched the mini clip on Subject Leadership in a Small School and I think it is brilliant! I have taken so much from it.

On behalf of everyone here at St Thomas' we would like to say a huge thank you for today's training. Lots of individuals commented on fabulous the day was.
Hi Clive, I hope you are well. I have had so many emails yesterday and conversations all about you!! You're absolutely inspirational - thank you for just being you! Staff feedback on "How he's just made it make sense" and our new staff really have got the foundations set for them, thanks to you.
They are great for mixed aged classes so you know how to plan for progression in the same class even if you have three year groups
This is a really uplifting read! Reminds us of the joy we had in teaching.
Followed the writers on Twitter and delighted they have written a book.
A beautiful book of memories of school days past. The book reminiscent of bygone exercise books filled with information that teachers knew but pupils only strongly suspected. Written with real heart and warmth. Walk with Geoff and Margaret down memory lane.
We recently had an Early Years Review with Focus Education and found Clive Davies to be knowledgeable, supportive, and clear in providing actionable next steps for the school to follow. The offer of staff training on the day was both useful and highly relevant. We would highly recommend Focus Education for school reviews and training.

Thank you so much. There was a real buzz in the air about the day. You have given us so much to think about, very practical and usable ideas and also something to look ahead to on our journey. We had comments about how inspired they were and fired up for the next steps for them as a school. Aspirational and practical at the same time. You were great Rebecca. Thank you so much
Just a quick note to thank you Keith for your work with us. We published our Ofsted report today. The report reflects the work everyone, in every part of the school. We appreciate the impact that your sessions have with a wide range of members of staff at different stages in their career. All note how you help them grow and develop professionally while also adding to our improvement journey. Thank you for your contribution to our school.
Thank you so much for today - your endorsement of our progress so far means a lot. You gave us confidence in our capacity to get this right when we met last year - I hope you feel that we have repaid your faith in us!
