“This was very inspirational. I highly recommend this course.”
“All students from a range of backgrounds and abilities were engaged and motivated throughout the whole day. They were encouraged to consider their responsibilities and commitment to learning and they were led to concentrate on ‘feedback not failure’ as a strategy for self improvement.
Students were challenged to examine their attitudes and beliefs and to recognise that they had control and influence over the success of their learning.”
Trevis Woodward, Head Teacher
“I enjoyed the ‘Positively Mad’ motivation session very much because it helped me find my inner self belief and showed me that I could do anything I wanted if I put my mind to it.”
Jacoba Williams

the way we think is reflected in the way that we act.

Endorsements
“Extremely Successful”
“It has been nearly a year since I had the good fortune to hear about Positively MAD and attend one of your teacher events in Grantham. You had obviously already built a significant reputation in the country for your excellent pupil and teacher-training events. I understand that this was through your connection with the excellence clusters and the work you were doing for them.
I have particularly appreciated the way you have consistently supported us at Aimhigher throughout all of the programmes you have delivered. I can say that the teacher-training events and the student workshops have been a major highlight of our work within Lincolnshire and Rutland schools. We set out to raise aspiration and attainment in all our schools and I firmly believe that your efforts have made a valuable contribution towards sustainable change in the county.
The aspirational and motivational events have proved extremely successful and I feel that you have inspired a good number of the students to think more positively and creatively about their future. The workshops enable all abilities to be more effective learners and recognise how they can achieve greater things than they previously may have believed possible. Your teacher-training programmes have proved popular with both Secondary and Grammar school teachers and we would be happy to schedule similar events over the next year.”
