Teacher testimonials
"I watched our Sixth form audience listen spell bound for an hour this morning and afterwards I relayed how I too had listened spell bound. Many thanks for what was a truly inspirational talk." - Norma Urquhart, Education Liaison Manager - Northumbria University
"Chris Hughes worked with 35 of our Year 11 students during the academic year 2007-2008.
The students he worked with were our so called "Widening Participation Cohort". These are students have ability, but are often under achieving or lack motivation. Chris and his team worked with these students for 6 half days at regular intervals throughout the year.
The work Chris did was inspirational and changed the students' attitude to their studies in a dramatic way, many attended Easter revision classes who I believe would have not previously considered extra-curricular studies.
"It has helped me to realise how important it is to do well in my exams and the importance of revision" Student.
"I would recommend the Hughes Company to any school wishing to raise levels of motivation and aspiration. Chris and his colleagues have also been a major part of our induction programme in to the Sixth Form for 5 years.
