At Chattan Harbour, we’ve always believed that great leadership transforms schools. That’s why, from the end of July, we’re proud to be launching a new chapter in our work: bespoke leadership services designed specifically for schools and multi-academy trusts.

This offering extends our ethos of calm, expert guidance beyond parents and pupils, to serve the very leaders shaping the future of education.

Why Leadership? Why Now?

We know that the challenges facing educational leadership today are both complex and nuanced. From strategic planning to governance, staff development to culture-building, successful leadership isn’t a one-size-fits-all affair. It requires perspective, experience, and a deep understanding of the independent sector’s unique dynamics.

Our new leadership services are built precisely with this in mind.

What’s Coming

Launching at the end of July, our Leadership Boathouse will offer:

• Bespoke Leadership Programmes: Crafted by those who have led some of the UK’s most successful schools, our programmes are tailored to the context and aspirations of your school or trust. 
• Expert Coaching: One-to-one and team coaching from seasoned Heads and sector specialists.
• 
  

Whether you are refining your leadership pipeline, reimagining your strategic goals, or responding to new challenges, we’re here to partner with you—with discretion, expertise, and clarity.

Rooted in Experience

Each member of the Chattan Harbour team has held senior leadership in the state or independent sector (and in some cases, both).  We understand the weight of responsibility—and the quiet resilience—it takes to lead well. Our aim is simple: to help schools and trusts flourish through strong, steady leadership.

We look forward to sharing more in the coming weeks. If your school or trust would like to be among the first to explore a leadership partnership with us, please do get in touch by registering your interest here at https://www.chattanharbour.com/leadership-services
