Ray Davis

CIS International Advisor, Council of International Schools

“Dr Stephen Holmes Key Note address at the CIS Australian Conference was extremely thought provoking and received with much enthusiasm. His message of marketing schools through and emphasis on curriculum, pedagogy and the quality of teaching provided by a school was refreshing at a time when many schools place emphasis upon who has the best facilities and who has the most impressive exit examination results. The message was sincere and Stephen’s charismatic and witty delivery kept the audience fully engaged and attuned to the far reaching implications of such an approach.”
