Featured Events, Conferences and Activities

I would describe the service that I received from ASCL as excellent. All of the advice, support and wisdom that I was offered have helped me to move on in life now that the situation has been brought to a conclusion. Headteacher, North East
I have received an outstanding service from ASCL. The support, guidance and responsiveness are to be commended. Business Manager, London
My first contact with ASCL was on one of the worst afternoons of my life. But from that point to the conclusion this week, I have felt fully supported and listened to. Key to me has been the combination of sensible advice, calm objectivity and a human approach. Deputy Headteacher
I could not have asked for more. The support from ASCL has been absolutely brilliant from start to finish. The advice, accompanying me at meetings, negotiating an agreement with my employer has all been superb. Assistant Head, Midlands
I’ve always valued ASCL as an organisation, but you really find out what it means to have the support when you need it and personally / professionally I can’t fault what she (& ASCL) have done for me and so just wanted to say thank you. Executive Leader
My caseworker was fantastic. A consummate professional who supported me extremely well. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to guide me through the process. Thank you. Executive Leader
