OUR AIMS
Effective education must anticipate the needs of learners in our ever-evolving world. To do so requires visionary leaders, inspirational educators and proactive approaches to quality assurance and improvement planning. The aim of Visionary Education consultancy is to look beyond current provision and work with schools, higher education institutions, nurseries, extended services and businesses in achieving a new vision for education.
FUTURE DEVELOPMENT
The world of education is constantly evolving and it is sometimes difficult to predict what the long term future holds but we do know that reflexive teachers, able to critically integrate research, theory and practice, are best prepared for their role as educators, not just for the next three years but for the next thirty years. Visionary education consultants have both the experience and the expertise of working with both experienced and trainee teachers in developing the skills, knowledge and understanding which will equip them for their professional development throughout their career in education.
WHO WE WORK WITH
We work nationally and internationally with all stakeholders and our approach is both personalised and flexible. We know that all schools are different with their own particular strengths, needs, and areas for development. With over twenty years of delivering high quality support and training to teachers, from trainee teacher to senior manager level, support staff, governors and parents, Visionary Education consultants are skilled in working with individuals and institutions to identify how best we may support you in achieving your individual vision.
