"Marcus brought a refreshing, interactive approach to our safeguarding training in Bucharest. His personal touch and extensive knowledge meant he was able to contextualise the information and bring the training to life." - Kendall Peet - Head of School, International British School of Bucharest, Romania."Marcus was an engaging and knowledgeable speaker who made this difficult topic relevant and interesting. There was a good mix of information sharing and activity which kept his audience involved. He challenged them to think and to apply what they had learned. The supporting materials were both a good aide memoire and workbook. Safeguarding is always high on everyone’s agenda and Marcus impressed it’s relevance to all staff members, whatever their role. Thank you." - Hilary Elkins - Deputy Head - Bromley High School (GDST), Bromley, United Kingdom"Just to let you know how pleased we are with Marcus Cherrill’s ‘Raising Boys Achievement’ session this morning. Staff feedback has been extremely positive. Marcus from the onset has been extremely professional in his approach. He really understood the school, our requirements and carefully planned the event collaboratively. Andrew Thorpe, Assistant Principal - Ormiston Bushfield Academy, United Kingdom"Marcus was superb. He was knowledgeable, approachable and obviously expert. For the number of people we had in the session [150] it was excellent value for money." - Frank Gilgan - Deputy Head - Redden Court School, Romford, United Kingdom
