Testimonials
We have been working with many of our schools from the beginning…….
“We have had the pleasure of working with ECS since September 2018 and must say that we have been thoroughly impressed from start to finish. Their professionalism, hard work and tenacity is second to none. The knowledge and experience they have under their belts is extra-ordinary. Friendly, approachable, and utterly dependable and reliable”.
Victoria Butler, Vice-Principal, Mark Hall Academy
“Thanks for being amazing and so supportive you’re amazing both of you. Thanks for everything you’ve done for our students”.
L. Terrey, Head of Year, Mark Hall Academy
“Thank you – this has been very useful for Kingston and we feel that you have assisted us in setting up a robust attendance monitoring system”.
Kirsteen Newell, Headteacher, Kingston Primary School
“I feel Elwira is a valuable asset to our attendance team, She has provided CPD, which has been invaluable now that the Attendance Matters workshops do not run. Elwira best supports us when conducting SBM’s when Penalty Warning Letters are issued as we are working hard to build positive relationships with parents/carers, around attendance, and it removes us from certain situations”.
Sarah Amran, Deputy Headteacher, Montgomerie Primary School
