Bio

During the three years that I worked with Clair, she was reliable, professional and very knowledgeable in her work. She provided valuable support and assistance at key points during the ongoing development of the delivery agency that I manage. This in turn, enabled the organisation to be transformed from a near less than satisfactory service, into one that drastically improved its' quality and breadth of training.

Clair has a real passion for PE and Sport and has worked really hard to support schools to offer the best possible PE experience for their young people. She has been particularly strong in her work with staff who are new to post or who are faced with challenging circumstances and has well developed coaching skills. Her knowledge of dance is strong and she has established and developed a group of Lead Dance Practitioners to pilot cutting edge practice and share it with others. This has involved providing functional line management to a group of remote workers, producing dance resources and building relationships with other key dance agencies.
