Virginia Raymond

Virginia’s background is in the Performing Arts, which included many years of teaching dance in education in primary and secondary schools in Dubai. This has given her a unique skill set in terms of working collaboratively and instinctively in a coaching style, knowledge and skills which have been built on and refined through a series of ILM qualifications. As well as working with children, Virginia has also supported teaching colleagues, including middle leaders in education, in dealing with the day to day stressful situations that exist in many schools today. She has a particular interest in developing Young Leaders and enjoys working with women who are also small business owners. Both of these areas present their own peculiar challenges, challenges which are of special relevance in the current economic and social environment.
