Diane Ketteringham is a trained and experienced supervisor, coach, mentor and trainer.  Her broad experience of working in challenging environments and multi-cultural settings, enables her to offer deep, insightful support and training.

She co-led parenting courses with CAMHS in North Southwark and she has professionally supported young offenders, young runaways and young people in care.  She also helped to turn around ‘the worst school in the country’ (bottom of national leagues tables 1996) to an OFSTED ‘Good’.  And she currently supports a multi-award-winning, trauma and attachment-informed school (Hope School in Liverpool) with staff supervision. 

Diane was asked by Demos (a Think Tank guiding government policy at the time) to contribute to their work on early interventions for educational inclusion ‘A Stitch in Time Report’ 2009.  Her work with children, parents and families in crisis has also featured in The Guardian, The Times and The Evening Standard.
