New Parents' Guide

Educational Planning & Counseling Services, the business of US-based SEC member Kenneth Davis, has just completed its resource guide for parents. It has been developed to help parents understand the role of an Educational Consultant in the placement of students in therapeutic and regular boarding schools, wilderness programs, colleges and residential programs in the United States.

Topics covered include:

  • the cost of boarding schools
  • student life
  • placement of special needs students
  • LD Student placement
  • wilderness programs
  • college placement
  • paying for boarding school
  • international student placement.

"The guide can be very useful to help parents understand why they need to hire a consultant and to understand the services we provide," says Ken. Existing and past paid clients are being sent the guide free of charge.

SEC members wishing to find out more about the guide are invited to contact Kenneth Davis

Free workshop on work-life balance
Work-Life Balance You’ve heard about it. You’ve been told you should have one. What does it mean for you? How do you start to achieve this?

SEC Committee member Barbara Roberts is involved in leading a short and simple introduction to discovering what your balance is and how to take instant steps towards reclaiming it. "This free workshop is for head teachers, teachers, school governors, business owners, managers – anyone who wants to reclaim their balance or learn how to help others reclaim theirs," she says.

Based on The Head Coach programme for schools, this is an interactive workshop where participants can explore how coaching can give added value to their personal and professional life. You will learn strategies that you can use immediately.
