About SupportED

Life’s path is rarely straight. It’s full of twists, turns, and the occasional unexpected detour. At SupportED, we understand that every teacher, leader, and school is on their own unique journey—one that can be both rewarding and challenging.

Our work is built on the belief that true progress comes from a place of support, curiosity, and empowerment. With extensive experience in UK and international education, we know that real success isn’t just about skills—it’s about mindset, clarity, and confidence. That’s why we create the time and space for individuals and teams to think differently, act with purpose, and grow into their full potential.

Why We Coach

SupportED exists to help people thrive. After decades of leadership and mentoring, we saw that the most lasting impact came when people were empowered to take ownership of their growth. Coaching and mentoring give us the opportunity to focus entirely on that—helping clients unlock their strengths, overcome challenges, and succeed on their own terms.

Our Coaching Philosophy

We believe coaching should be a partnership—rooted in trust, curiosity, and the belief that the answers lie within you. Our role isn’t to hand you solutions, but to ask the right questions, challenge limiting assumptions, and offer the encouragement and support you need to move forward.

We draw on proven frameworks such as the Empowerment Dynamic, Visualisation, and Transactional Analysis to help clients gain fresh perspective, strengthen leadership, and take confident, intentional action.

Who We Work With

SupportED partners with:

  • Headteachers and senior leaders seeking a confidential, supportive thinking space

  • Teachers planning their next career step—whether in the UK or internationally

  • Schools wanting coaching-led appraisal, leadership development, or team coaching

Many of our clients come to us at a crossroads—ready for change but uncertain about their next move. We work together to find clarity, confidence, and practical steps that lead to sustainable progress.
