What Schools Are Saying
“Leading change in a small rural community (school) can be challenging. Peta’s mindset coaching enabled me to create a safe place for courageous conversations with colleagues. These conversations lead us into significant change to innovate on our practices and develop a more impactful and strategic direction for our school.”

Reignite The Leadership And Passion Of Your School Staff Members.
Support your school to function effortlessly as a symbiotic community. Your students, parents and teachers should to be part of a school that is recognised for educational excellence.
As a former teacher and principal, I understand the challenges you face as a school. That is why I have used my more than 20 years of experience in a variety of roles and workplaces as a teacher, assistant principal, and principal to put together these transformative coaching programs.
Hi, I’m Peta
I founded Beyond the Classroom in 2018 with the mission to support educators. After more than 20 years in a variety of roles and workplaces as a teacher, assistant principal, and principal, I combine my extensive background and experiences with a non-judgmental approach. I am passionate about making a change in education by supporting educators. I am equally committed to my own continuous professional and personal development to ensure that my knowledge and skills remain relevant to my work.
