Testimonials
"I have worked several times with Clare, having come across her at the strong recommendation of a Head. She has an excellent understanding of what makes parents tick, but also how this transfers to specific and all-too-common areas of dissatisfaction and aggravation between parents and the school. She has a very appealing, but direct, method of demonstrating how conflicts can arise, and the techniques that are most effective in handling these difficult situations. Clare is an entertaining and extremely professional operator."

"I am very grateful to you for agreeing to run the joint workshop with Mark Waldron – you couldn’t have had stronger recommendations than those we received from Mungo Dunnett and Mark. The feedback from your session was very positive and I hope you enjoyed the day and met some interesting heads. I certainly hope our paths cross again as your work chimes so well with what HMC schools are aiming to do in terms of working with parents."
