Pragmatic education advisory requires a methodology grounded in genuine institutional experience. Two decades of leadership in British boarding schools have given Alexis an operational understanding of how these institutions work—their cultures, priorities, and the factors that determine outcomes. Combined with systematic assessment drawn from proprietary data, this allows Alexis to evaluate potential with precision, identify environments that deliver on their promises, and recognise the full landscape of possibility.

Strategic counsel must account for the whole picture. Contextual dynamics, competing expectations, and unspoken pressures all shape decisions—and deserve direct engagement. Alexis’s recommendations position stakeholders across chapters, transitions, and generations, calibrated for long-term flourishing rather than short-term optics. The difficult questions matter most, and Alexis asks them.

  • Two decades in leadership within boarding schools. Alexis knows how these institutions actually operate—their cultures, priorities, and the factors that determine outcomes. He identifies environments that deliver on their promises, and recognises possibilities others miss.

  • Systematic assessment of potential, drawing on proprietary data from two decades of professional experience. Strengths, latent capability, formative influences, and protective factors are evaluated with precision—not intuition alone.

  • Where others address symptoms, Alexis reads systems. His recommendations position young people and their families across chapters, transitions, and generations—calibrated for long-term flourishing, not short-term optics, helping deliver authentic outcomes.

  • Trusted counsel requires seeing the whole picture: family dynamics, unspoken pressures, competing expectations. Alexis asks the questions others avoid and ensures decisions are grounded in clarity rather than assumption. Absolute discretion is foundational.
