Working in Partnership to Create Real and Lasting Change

Sometimes a one-off intervention is not enough and your school requires dedicated expertise over a longer period of time.

Drawing on his many years’ experience as a teacher, consultant and then director of a £2million regeneration project, James has designed a P4C support package that is helping schools across the world to have a profound effect on student achievement, aspirations and socialisation.

To date, James has been influential in the creation of local, regional, national and international P4C networks in many countries around the world. To find out more, please contact James

Impact of James’s Work:

The thought provoking and exciting curriculum the school has developed over the last two years is an outstanding component of the school’s success …(this includes) the development of ‘Philosophy for Children’, a powerful tool which both excites the pupils and gives them the confidence to explore stimulating and challenging ideas and concepts. It not only strengthens their academic learning, but also encourages their empathy for others and gives them insights into the adult world. (Ofsted Curriculum Grade 1 Ropsley Primary School Ofsted Report, Feb 2007)
