The SIP Packages
All schools are different, and any school can find itself in challenging circumstances at any time. Every member of the Melhoria team has been a head teacher - we know and understand the many challenges and stresses that come with the job, as well as the delights, love and passion that are also experienced. No two days are the same – and no two schools or head teacher are the same either! We aim to match our School Improvement Partners with each school to ensure that relationships can be developed over time, so we really get to know you and your school. We have designed a range of School Improvement packages for schools - all of which are flexible. Our approach to our school improvement work is to develop open, honest and trusted relationships with all our schools. To provide you with professional challenge and feedback, and to ensure that we are always available to offer support thought the year. We aim to be part of your team. All visits include a written not of visit to support your self-evaluation process.

“As a Multi-Academy Trust, Mosaic Partnership utilise the services of Judith Tinsley through a package of Safeguarding. We made the decision to use an external provider given the importance of independent scrutiny, guidance, advice and support in this area and can testify to an excellent working relationship. The quality of advice, knowledge of statutory responsibilities and understanding of legislation is excellent in the work that Judith undertakes for us. Her support to DSLs in supervision has been of a very high quality and feedback from school leaders is that this is a partnership with an external partner we truly value and gain so much from. Her work with us centrally ensuring we have robust systems, processes and compliance is also invaluable.”
