Alex Rawlings

Trainer & Consultant

Alex has worked in primary education for almost 20 years, spending the last 6 years as a headteacher at a school in the West Midlands. He led his school from the Ofsted grade, ‘Requires Improvement’, to ‘Good’ (March 2020), navigated his school through the COVID-19 pandemic, and through another inspection (May 2025) when the school kept its Ofsted ‘Good’ judgement.

Though his school has many challenges, he has led it to the highest attainment levels in its history across almost all attainment measures.

Alex has worked alongside schools to develop curriculum and subject leadership and has acted as a mentor to new headteachers. He has shared his knowledge and experience whilst completing a master’s degree in Senior Leadership in Education and the National Professional Qualification in Executive Leadership (NPQEL).

Alex has a passion for school leadership at all levels and the development of systems within a school that ensure teams are more than the sum of their parts and children receive the best teaching and school leadership possible.
