Meet Mervyn

The Focus Mode difference

01

Connection before correction.

02

Reflection before reaction.

03

Self-awareness before self-improvement.

For school leaders

Supporting the priorities your school is judged on.

Our work is designed to sit alongside the areas inspectors and governors look at most closely.

Personal development

Assemblies and programmes that build confidence, resilience, character and aspiration.

Behaviour and attitudes

Small group work that helps students reflect, take responsibility and re-engage with learning.

Leadership and staff wellbeing

Staff CPD that strengthens relationships, communication and leadership across your team.

In their words

“Mervyn’s personal story was inspiring. From failure to success and the journey from a personal account resonated with staff and students.”
