Helping Children Thrive Through Expert Coaching , Training and Consultation
Specialist Support for Schools: Embedding Trauma-Informed and Nurturing Practice.
With over 20 years’ specialist experience in Behaviour Support and EOTAS (Education Other Than at School), I support schools, settings, and statutory services to understand and meet the complex needs of children and young people experiencing significant or ongoing Social, Emotional, Behavioural and Wellbeing (SEBW) challenges.
I work in partnership with schools and professionals to:
- Embed trauma-informed and nurturing approaches into everyday practice
- Improve educational outcomes for vulnerable pupils, including Children in Care (LAC) and those with persistent SEBW needs
- Ensure pupils’ needs are fully understood, supported, and reflected in whole-school policies and classroom strategies
- Promote inclusive practice and create emotionally safe environments where all learners can thrive
Whether you're looking to build staff capacity, review current provision, or develop a whole-school approach to wellbeing and behaviour, I can help tailor support to meet your school's specific needs.

Improving Educational Outcomes for children and young people who are vulnerable, in need or in care.
Experiencing trauma can profoundly disrupt a child’s sense of safety and belonging. It affects their ability to form and sustain healthy relationships, regulate their emotions, and feel secure in their environment.
Trauma is often communicated through behaviour. Before children are able to explain their experiences, they show us their distress. This can manifest as a deep distrust of adults, heightened stress responses, and behaviours that may appear risky, unpredictable, or challenging in the school setting.
For schools, navigating this can feel overwhelming—especially when pupils present with behaviours that impact not only their own safety and wellbeing, but also that of their peers and staff.
With over 20 years of specialist experience supporting pupils across Key Stages 1 to 4 with significant and substantive Social, Behavioural, Emotional and Wellbeing (SBEW) needs, and 12 years leading a specialist EOTAS provision, I bring deep practical knowledge and trauma-informed insight to my work with schools, settings and statutory services
I am passionate about helping education professionals, kinship and foster carers to understand the roots of behaviour and supporting them to respond with compassion, confidence, and clarity.
I offer a range of supports to schools and statutory services, with the best interests of the child always at the centre.
Let’s work together to improve outcomes for our most vulnerable pupils and build school communities where every child feels safe, seen, and supported.
