The UK's leading educational consultancy
James Barnes Consultancy represents outstanding experience in educational consultancy for independent schools. Whether it be governance issues, development planning, staffing needs or marketing your school, we can help you find the right course of action.
Our aim
“James has a wealth of experience upon which to draw, complemented by an understanding of what a modern prep school should be offering to its children and their parents; I have greatly valued his advice on a number of important issues... a highly positive experience for me and my staff.”
Our aim is to provide support and advice in a practical and positive way. We use a range of prep and senior school colleagues covering all aspects of the independent sector thereby recognizing the needs of widely different schools and we certainly do not espouse a 'one size fits all' approach.
By ensuring the right person is working with you I am confident that JBC can provide a range of benefits for your school. Crucially, we are able to work closely with you over a period of time if that is appropriate, which ensures a detailed understanding of you, your school and its needs; that partnership would seem to me to be the cornerstone of effective consultancy.
