Let customers speak for us
from 78 reviewsThese little books are a huge help in breaking down work into small steps. They were well received by all the staff and curriculum leaders found them very useful in redesigning/adapting our units of work.
Excellent read.
Clear and helpful communication, product arrived on time, good quality product.
Alex 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.

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.
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.
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.
