I have been working with Heads and governors for the last 16 years helping them to make the most of their human talent. I have a detailed knowledge of pay and conditions in education and I am an experienced negotiator. I can help schools on many of the strategic challenges:
- HR strategy
- Managing major reorganisations and the related consultation exercises
- Advice on complex casework (e.g. grievances, disciplinaries and capability issues)
- Undertaking investigations on behalf of the Governing body
- Review of Pay for senior leadership staff
- Recruitment and selection of Senior Leadership team
- Development of HR policies and procedures
- TUPE consultation
- Whole governing body training
These can be provided as ‘ad hoc’ and distinct projects (where the price for the work is agreed beforehand) or offered as part of a retained package. For an annual retainer, schools receive same day advice on all HR issues as and when they need it. Five secondary schools (four of whom have recently converted to academy status) presently buy the retained HR service.
