Testimonials
Jane and Fin have enabled us to successfully begin all processes leading to the new curriculum in 2022. Organised, insightful, professional and empathetic, all of the materials and support have been first rate. Following their input we are now in a much stronger position to be fully ready for the implementation. The professional learning section has enabled staff to undertake appropriate, up to date and supported action research projects that will only enhance the offer we provide for our children. Thoroughly recommend!
Fin and Jane at Impact Wales really understand what schools need to know regarding learning and the work they have produced on the New Wales Curriculum is excellent. They explain it in a way that is easy to understand and follow, extracting the main points for focus and simplifying a very large document into very manageable sections for schools and teachers to focus on. Their sketchnotes are visually stunning and attention-grabbing. I highly recommend Impact Wales.
Every time Fin or Jane speak, they have a superpower of cutting through the white noise and getting to the heart of the matter. I needed that for my team. Having CPD planned over months meant we could also put Rosenshine’s principles into action and implement the science of learning while learning to use it. The training led to improvements in pedagogical understanding and informed future planning. Superb and invaluable.
Jane and Finola’s invaluable support and wealth of knowledge was absolutely integral in helping us to create a strategic plan to drive forward the Skills agenda.
Working as ‘critical friends’ to both myself and colleagues in the school, we were able to act upon their advice, think more logically and in a very short space of time see the ‘green shoots’ of progress emerge both with literacy and numeracy.
I can safely say, the school would not be where it is now in terms of skills if we hadn’t had the support of Impact.
Our Advisory Board
We believe it is essential that we stay as close to what’s happening in classrooms as possible. That’s why we have an Advisory Board.
Our board consists of teachers, senior leaders and headteachers from across the UK who meet with us on a regular basis to give us feedback on the support that we offer and to help us decide what’s next in our journey to support schools to improve.
Our Advisory Board is incredibly valuable to us as an organisation. They help us stay up to date with real life teaching and understand the pressures and challenges that teachers and leaders face on a day to day basis. Have a look at our advisory board below.
