What do you look for in a professional provider? The right blend of experience and knowledge and professional and human qualities. Such a telling and effective combination is rare in crowded marketplace but Sarah Howling has all this in abundance.

Sarah has enjoyed and experienced many years as a first-rate educational practitioner in schools. She was an excellent school leader. At the heart of an effective leader is a great teacher. Sarah continues adapting and deploying those carefully crafted teaching skills now in her work as a coach, mentor and consultant to great effect. She believes like all excellent teachers and school leaders that you never stop learning.
I know all this because I have first-hand experience of seeing her at work as both a headteacher and as a professional learning provider and working with her in COBIS school accreditation.

Sarah works very well with others. She listens actively, she’s empathetic and she’s flexible. Her work will be about you – your context, your needs, your issues. She tailors her support so her skilful advice will be made-to measure and fit for purpose. 

Sarah certainly knows her stuff. She is thorough, rigorous and punctilious. She is serious about doing an excellent job but will never take herself too seriously. 

Sarah Howling is also an absolute joy to work with and she will find joy in whatever process you engage her for. And engaging she will be. The best teachers put others before themselves to create the conditions in which truly effective and long-lasting learning can take place and she does.

She offers a rare blend of fine teacher attributes and human qualities which is why she is in such great demand.
