Headteacher/Staff Support Programme
Gary delivers Headteacher and staff support packages which typically consists of a 6 or 12 hour 'package' over an academic year, which usually involves three to six visits of pastoral support and additional email, phone or skype contact. This can be varied according to needs but is based on visits which are private, confidential and act as a professional sounding board, within a coaching/mentoring approach which leads to action for better results, problem-solving and greater resilience.
A variation in hours (e.g fewer or greater) can be discussed individually as a well as ‘packages’ that include some inset e.g. 2/3 twilight sessions per annum or coaching sessions delivered in a smaller time frame e.g a coaching session weekly for one month.
