After over a decade working as a teacher and school leader, progressing to Deputy Headteacher, I reached the point where the workload and pressure of school leadership were no longer sustainable. I left education without another role lined up and experienced first-hand the uncertainty that comes with trying to translate a teaching career into something new.

That experience inspired Classroom Exit Coach®: a specialist career-coaching business helping teachers and school leaders understand their options, recognise the value of their transferable skills and move into fulfilling careers beyond the classroom.

Since then, we’ve supported hundreds of educators through career change and helped thousands more through our webinars, online community and social media content. Our approach is honest, practical and encouraging. We don’t tell people they must leave teaching; we help them make an informed decision and, if leaving is right for them, create a realistic strategy for doing it successfully.

Whether someone is completely overwhelmed and unsure where to begin, actively applying for jobs or preparing for an interview, we provide the clarity, structure and support needed to take that next step with confidence.

We provide practical, personalised career-change support for teachers and school leaders who are considering leaving education but feel unsure about what they could do next or how to make the transition.

Our services include:
- One-to-one career coaching and structured career-change programmes
- Career direction and transferable-skills sessions
- CV, application and LinkedIn support
- Interview coaching
- Coaching and training for senior leaders and education organisations
