​Founded in 2022 by an ex-primary headteacher, Better Balance Education has developed strong, trusting working relationships with many schools, both primary and secondary, in the East of England. We take a slightly different approach to school improvement than many. We don't focus on Ofsted, the curriculum, software solutions or training on how to do the job, not that there is anything wrong with any of that. Instead, we focus on empowering and optimising what you already have, your team. We do this through a mixture of support, education and empowerment. Our approach is based on the belief that the most precious people in any school are the pupils and therefore, the most important resource are the staff. Our work focuses on supporting the adults in the school to be at their very best for the children. We also have the advantage of being independent and impartial, meaning we are far more likely to be able to navigate what may be tricky issues and get to the heart of the matter.

​

We offer bespoke support to all of our schools based on their particular needs. As well as offering pay as you go services, we have also introduced a series of packages for September 2024 to offer high value, cost-effective and powerful solutions for schools.
