HR & Employment for Schools & Academies

Proactive Advice & Planning – Together we can improve your school...


At Goughs we have many Partners and staff with considerable experience in supporting Schools and Academies by directly acting for schools as legal representatives or by chairing and membership of Governing Bodies.

 

Our aim is to support you in running your School the way you want to for the benefit of your students whose needs come first.

 
Every school’s needs are different. Many schools are very frustrated by convoluted process driven HR procedures and employment advice which is not fit for purpose in the modern educational environment. This hinders development and progress to the detriment of all involved, causing frustration for students, parents and teachers alike.
 
We adopt a proactive outcome focussed approach designed to deliver the school’s objectives as quickly and efficiently as possible.
 
We can help you develop your school…
