Home / Services

Meet the standard, prove it, and stay ready.

Regulators expect more every year. I’ve registered services with the CQC from scratch and taken schools through Ofsted and registration inspections. I help you get compliant and build the habits that keep you there.

Sound familiar?

The problems I’m usually called in for.

  • An inspection is coming and you’re not sure you’re ready
  • Policies exist on paper but nobody follows them
  • Records are scattered and hard to find when asked
  • You’re registering a new service or school and don’t know where to start
  • Trustees or governors aren’t sure what they’re responsible for
  • A previous inspection raised issues that still aren’t fixed

What I do

Take one piece or all of it. Every engagement starts with a free consultation.

CQC registration and compliance

Registering services from scratch, and keeping them compliant with the fundamental standards.

Ofsted and school registration

Preparing schools for registration and Ofsted inspections, and following up afterwards.

Charity governance

Trustee responsibilities, board papers, Charity Commission requirements and good governance habits.

Policies that fit

Policies and procedures written for how you actually work, so people follow them.

Audits and mock inspections

An honest check against the standard, with a clear list of what to fix and by when.

Evidence and records

Records organised so you can show the regulator what you do, quickly and confidently.

Where you need a specialist, such as a clinical lead, a safeguarding trainer or a solicitor, I’ll say so and help you find the right one.

Examples

Hatzola

Volunteer emergency medical service

A volunteer ambulance service that needed to operate to the standard of a CQC-registered provider.

As Director of Operations I’ve led CQC registration and compliance, HR and volunteer management, finance, fundraising and trustee relations.

Schools

Independent and faith schools

Schools facing Ofsted and registration inspections, building work, staffing changes and contracts that had never been properly reviewed.

I’ve taken schools through registration and Ofsted inspections, managed extensions and renovations, restructured staff teams, rebuilt finance and fundraising, and renegotiated supplier contracts.

Tell me what’s stuck.

Book a free consultation. We’ll sit down, look at where things stand and talk through where I can make a real difference. No obligation and no sales pitch. If I’m not the right fit, I’ll tell you.
