Helping time-poor headteachers stop the firefighting so they can actually get on with the strategic
What my clients say
Coaching sessions with Kirsty were invaluable. Kirsty was able to help me recognise my own thoughts and to see a way forward when I was daunted or overwhelmed by my responsibilities.
CD
Deputy Headteacher
Kirsty's ability to listen and reframe thoughts in a positive light empowered me to embrace my emotions and challenge myself for growth and self-discovery.

If you want to address things that you feel are holding you back, if you are curious and want to grow, grab any opportunity you get for coaching with Kirsty. She’ll very quickly put you at ease and with her gentle expertise, I am sure you will get there, as long you want to and are ready to embrace the odd bit of discomfort that growing inevitably involves.
It will definitely be worth it!

Project Manager
I love our meetings - they're a safe space to meet with a respected colleague who understand ths challenges and can relate to the struggles. But, more important the impact has been to invoke change. Everything we have discussed has resulted in a change and an action being completed. As a result a weight has lifted from me too.
Donna Jagger
Headteacher
Kirsty's coaching was hugely beneficial for me and has been a great experience. It's helped clarify my thinking and next steps in improving my working life.
Christie Cavallo
Headteacher
Kirsty allows me a psychologically safe place - an opportunity to talk, be heard but not judged. It's led to me making positive changes by self-identification of the issues and strategies to deploy with confidence.

Investment in Your Leadership
Coaching is an investment in your capacity to lead effectively without sacrificing your wellbeing or your school's outcomes.
Accessible Pricing for All School Leaders
I believe every headteacher deserves access to coaching support, regardless of school size. That's why I offer tiered pricing based on your pupil numbers:
Schools with fewer than 200 pupils: 33% discount on all packages.
Your school size doesn't change the quality or commitment of the coaching you'll receive. We'll confirm which tier applies during your free discovery call.
NB. These packages provide a framework, but coaching is tailored to what you actually need. We'll agree your specific focus and outcomes in our discovery call.
