“TOTALLY BRILLIANT!!
From the initial conversation about the courses, and how we could develop a team to support colleagues effecively, through to the timeliness and level of detail of the courses themselves; the flexibility and adaptibility for fitting the courses into a timescale that worked for school to the professional, supportive manner the training was delivered.
Expectations were high to ensure we all completed our pre course work and training was clear, and modelled wellbeing perfectly with appropriate rest breaks. Would highly recommend. Thank you Alison.”
