Edinburgh

My goal is a simple one. To enable people to be their best and succeed in what is true to them. Sometimes we get stuck in the mire; can’t see the wood for the trees. My gift is to help you clear your own path. I am a straight-talker and down to earth with great insight and the ability to get to the heart of the matter quickly. Clients may come to me with the topic of problems at work when the real issue is one of a more personal nature, and vice-versa. I believe in coaching the person, not the problem as it is all connected and I love helping people to achieve more balance in their lives. Prior to re-training as a Co-Active coach with CTI (The Coaches Training Institute – the world’s leading coach training organisation) I worked in Restaurant/Hospitality management for over 18 years. This provided me with the opportunity to meet, support and serve a diverse group of people with vastly different personalities leaving me in a great position to coach a wide range of individuals. Why choose a Co-Active coach? What is different about a Co-Active coaching conversation? Coaching is not about solving problems, although problems will be solved. It is not primarily about improving performance, attaining goals or achieving results, although all of that will certainly happen over time in an effective coaching relationship. I believe that coaching is chiefly about discovery, awareness and choice. It is a way of empowering people to find their own answers, encouraging and supporting them on the path as they continue to make important life-giving and life-changing choice. The power of choice itself is an amazing thing, I believe that every situation has possibilities and that people really do have the power of choice in their lives. I also LOVE to cook and am a big fan of gaming in my spare time to help keep my brain active – it’s also very social and I love people.

Bedford

Formed in April 2017, we run Elstow School, Bedford Free School and Queen’s Park Academy. We are opening a brand new secondary school, Houstone School, in September 2022. We believe very strongly in our values, which guide everything we do. We exist to serve our communities – the pupils and families of Bedford and Central Bedfordshire – in order to offer a real choice of education. We specialise in an academic education that offers excellent outcomes, a great learning environment with routines and structures that ensure excellent behaviour, and phenomenal extra-curricular opportunities. Our schools are genuinely comprehensive, and we believe that every child can go on to achieve extraordinary things. We ensure that our curriculum is rich in knowledge, expect hard work and do not make excuses. We believe in working together with families to support our high expectations that meet young peoples’ aspirations. Every pupil should have the option to go to university at 18, and for the vast majority this should be the choice of highly-selective universities. We hence craft our curriculum around the core knowledge contained in traditional academic subjects. We believe all of our pupils have a right to the assumed knowledge that educated people take for granted, and aspire to ensure that all of our pupils join the community of educated citizens. We are outward-facing, sharing all of what we do with other trusts, professionals and anyone who is interested.
