As headteacher, Bruce's leadership of Berwickshire High School from 2020-24 has been instrumental in turning around a school rated 'weak' and 'unsatisfactory' in an HMIE inspection, to one that is now widely recognised as sector-leading in its approaches to teaching & learning improvement, ethos, and staff professional development. As a consultant and trainer, Bruce is widely praised for his passion, clarity and the practicality of his messages. Finola Wilson is a former secondary English teacher, and now company director of Impact Wales. Finola started out in education, training and coaching in 1990. More recently, Finola has been supporting schools across the UK, but particularly in Wales and Scotland, to understand how research underpins good teaching and learning. As one half of Impact Wales, she creates simple one-page sketchnotes that bring together visuals and text to help teachers understand research-informed pedagogy. Finola is an avid runner and spent many years running long distance races. Nowadays, she runs just for fun around the beautiful coast & valleys of South Wales, where she lives with her husband and her grown-up sons.
