“Six primary schools of the Yarra Valley and Outer Eastern cluster of Catholic Education in Melbourne have an ongoing relationship with Dr. Stephen Holmes as they develop, refine and implement a strategic approach to building their reputations. This work is ongoing and will continue throughout 2016 and 2017.

Stephen’s work with our schools has been extremely well received and valued by each of the school teams that have attended (inclusive of both staff and key parent leaders). The schools universally have appreciated Stephen’s capacity to engage them with the learning, his own personal style and ability to share his own knowledge and expertise.

I think the real reflection of Stephen’s capacities has been the immediate re- engagement of his services by the Cluster as well as an expansion in the size of the cohort of schools participating.

Stephen’s knowledge, capacity to listen and to engage and facilitate learning are his signature skills and attributes.”
