Welcome to

Iris Consultancy

We support schools and parents to help children thrive.

Education, consultancy + mentoring

Life is a learning process for everyone.

Drawing upon more than two decades of classroom experience as a headteacher, senior leader and educational specialist in schools across Yorkshire, Iris Consultancy brings a solution-focused perspective to behaviour change.

Led by SEMH specialist Helen Hatton, our unwavering passion stems from the belief that any challenge can be overcome by addressing a child’s emotional needs.

A fresh perspective offers solutions

We believe every child should have the opportunity to thrive in the classroom and in life.

At Iris Consultancy we provide parents and teachers with a fresh perspective, so they can perceive situations differently and move towards a solution.

Rather than dictating how to parent or teach, our role is to serve as an impartial guide, shedding light on what your child truly requires, so they can emotionally thrive in life.

Using the Relational Approach, our goal is to arm you with the essential tools and knowledge you need to navigate what can often feel like a complex journey.

What would life look like if you could wave a magic wand?

When we go into schools, headteachers often ask us to wave our magic wand. Imagine if all the children in the world had their emotional needs met.

Every child is different.
Every school is different.
Every home is different.
Every parent has had a different upbringing.

At Iris Consultancy we understand this. Working with schools and parents 1:1, our bespoke services are individually designed to provide the support YOUR child needs.
