What topics can you speak or provide training on?
Justine speaks and delivers training on a wide range of school business and operational leadership topics, including effective school business operations, leadership and career development, building effective teams, governance, trust central services, organisational structures, change and the evolving role of school business professionals. Sessions can be tailored to the needs of a conference, trust, school or professional network.
What does mentoring look like?
Mentoring is tailored to the individual and may include regular one-to-one sessions, support through a new appointment, leadership development, career planning, confidence building or help with a particular challenge. Sessions are practical, confidential and grounded in real school business experience. Support can be arranged as a one-off session or as an ongoing programme.
Do you work with both maintained schools and academy trusts?
Yes. Berkeley Elevate works with maintained schools, single-academy trusts, multi-academy trusts and school business professionals at different stages of their careers. Support is always shaped around the organisation’s context, priorities and capacity.
