I am currently carrying out doctoral research at the University of Wolverhampton, looking at the link between motivation and academic performance of students with low socioeconomic status. I am also a consultant, specialising in leadership and SEND, working for TeamADL, and the governor of two Warwickshire schools

Cole Andrew:

Cole has 30 years of positive testimony and outcomes as a teacher leader, including Headships in the Southeast and Northwest of England. His ethos has a strong background in child development approaches to curriculum planning, assessment and classroom pedagogy.

Cole has a proven track record in senior leadership roles across mainstream, specialist and Local Authority settings; over a 25 year period. As a Head teacher in an Inclusive mainstream setting in Kent and then an all age special school in the Northwest, Cole realised the significance of prioritising self development, wellbeing and leadership skills with equal import and impact on outcomes.
