Optimus Education | HMC Autumn Conference 2025

Our mission is simple: to help every young person thrive.
We do this by empowering schools with the tools, training, and support they need to succeed.

Through our professional development programmes – from dynamic online CPD training to tailored consultancy and inspiring national conferences – we equip teachers and school leaders with practical strategies that make a real difference in the classroom.

We’re also proud to offer a set of highly respected whole-school accreditation frameworks, designed to drive lasting improvement and celebrate excellence:

• Wellbeing Award for Schools (WAS) – creating a culture where mental health and wellbeing flourish.
• SEND Inclusion Award (SENDIA) – ensuring every learner feels supported and included.
• Excellence in Pupil Development Award (EPDA) – nurturing personal growth alongside academic success.
• Leading Parent Partnership Award (LPPA) – building strong, positive relationships with families.
• Best Practice with Teaching Assistants Award (BPTAA) – recognising and strengthening the impact of TAs in education.

Together, these services and awards form a holistic approach to school improvement, raising standards and outcomes for young people across the country.
