“It’s not what you do, it’s who you are while you’re doing it’”

Marie Gentles - Behaviour Expert 
Marie Gentles was previously a headteacher and worked in the education sector for nearly 20 years. Marie’s work, of which she received an OBE for its 95-100% success rate, was recognised by the government and sparked media interest leading to two BBC TV documentaries and a best selling book.

Marie went from primary school teacher to the UK’s leading behaviour expert, and now supports parents and carers, as well as professionals, who are supporting children and young people, to receive the expertise required to feel capable and confident in managing children’s behaviours.
"This is easily the best training I have ever had, it’s so effective and life changing."

Teachers love what we do ❤︎  

Marie is so passionate about sharing her knowledge. She helped things make sense and I understand how to manage behaviour so much better now.
Everyone working with children should have this guidance. It gets you thinking outside the box and makes dealing with challenging behaviour much more manageable. 5 stars!
"Marie's no blame, no shame approach means that you can absorb what she's teaching in an easier way. This really does work, I almost can't believe how much things have changed in my life!"
