My name is Andy Thompson, and I am the founder of AT Education Consulting.
I offer independent advice and guidance as students face the big moments of transition – public examination in final years’ schooling (at (I)GCSEs and A levels and also the major examinations within the International Baccalaureate), moving on to university to an undergraduate degree and also for students aspiring to postgraduate studies.
I believe such moments of transition are exciting but are also attended by worries that dominate thinking for families as students face the big challenges of public examination and choice of progress to university and, eventually, a career. Each transition – into sixth form study, into degree level study, out to a career – is a long process that involves much thinking and planning. I can help you, as I have helped hundreds of students and their families, in a variety of ways at every stage.
You will find detail of the services I offer on the following pages. If the support you require is not immediately visible, please feel free to contact me with any questions you have or any challenge you face to see if I can help. In a long career in education there is not much I haven’t encountered, but I retain a freshness and I hope, when you meet me, a warmth that inspires you to approach whatever challenge you face with renewed energy, feeling more certain of your success. No matter my experience, every time I begin with a new student and a new family I start all over again, listening to you to gain an understanding of where you are in your journey and where you want to go next. I will help you get there.
You can read a little more about my background here.
