* NEW for 2025 *

 For schools and organisations who are looking for fresh perspectives, LAOS simplified and coaching style supports for their schools - I am available in 2025. An avid protector of teachers' time my talks help teachers to see that what they are already doing - are examples of meeting the LAOS standards - they just never realised it! 

My mock interviews with teachers inform my planning for where teachers need further support. 

My webinars and face to face sessions have been described as insightful, empowering, motivational, focused and practical. 

Caroline said this about my webinar: "Orla, you made me feel much more at ease about the whole process of applying and interviewing. You were excellent at explaining both the LAOS document and STAR answering technique."
