What school leaders say
“SkillsforUs for organizing this wonderful conference for the principals of Lucknow. They did a wonderful job of enlightening all of us about the Quantum Impact. I think the teachers, coordinators, and the head and principals who came here this morning have learned a lot, and I am sure they are going to implement it in their colleges and schools where they are working.
Overall, I would like to thank Mark for making things so simple on leadership and the role of a principal as a leader. I think it’s amazing. The takeaway from this conference this morning was that we had—I liked the topic on skill based curriculum, forming the right team and also, we, I think, enjoyed the activities based on it—the teamwork, where principals worked as a team, and the different activities that they performed. I think that’s really wonderful. And once again, thank you very much, SkillsforUs1″
“That was a wonderful session given by Mark, who contributed a lot of time. We are here on a Sunday, and over 60 principals were also here. So many things they have shared with us which can make all the schools—very effective, and teaching can be very effective. The leadership training they have given to the principals, I am sure, will help principals do lots of wonders in their schools. They can bring a lot of change in the school. As per NEP, as per NCF, whatever the government requirements are, they will fulfill them in their school. Thank you so much again to SkillsforUs for bringing such an event to our school in Varanasi. Thank you.”
“The Future Skills Programme for students and the Continuous Professional Development (CPD) Programme for teachers offered by Skillsforus have made a meaningful contribution to strengthening competencies, life skills, and character development among our students. Their structured approach has also empowered teachers with practical strategies to enhance classroom engagement and support student growth.“
“Hello everyone, It was really a great takeaway from today’s session, and I found it so enriching believing in the fact that learning is possible at any age, at any moment. Whatever inputs we are taking away from this particular session actually enlighten each one of us towards making learning a priority. For me, particularly, the takeaways include:Learning as a priority How you can make a difference in the classroom by making it a ‘wow’ spectrum The win-win approach the trainer talked about it was really a wonderful takeaway The ownership skills we need to have as teachers that our children should be the best should be in practice. Once again, thank you team SkillsforUs”
“Today we were all privileged to have a session by Mark. he has come all the way from the UK. And he has spoken to about 60 odd principals from all over Varanasi on the importance of acceptance of changes, as we know the change is the only constant, and change is something which we all have to accept, and the only thing which we are all scared of, which we all are fearful of is the change so how to accept that change in this changing world is what Mr Mark has spoken about and I as a Dean of Academic is really thankful to my school management and thankful to SkillsforUs of this particular program.”
“The School Improvement Programme by Skillsforus has provided a structured and impactful framework to strengthen this partnership across all stakeholder groups. Their interventions have supported teacher effectiveness, enhanced student development, encouraged meaningful parent engagement, and enabled school leaders to drive continuous improvement with clarity and purpose. We have found the programme to be practical, relevant, and aligned with the evolving needs of schools. It has been a valuable partner in our journey towards excellence.”
“I am truly blessed and feeling skilled in many fields. I accept the change, and only then can we shape the future. I am totally feeling rejuvenated, and I’ll be joining from Monday with enthusiasm. It’s like a new venture for me as a leader of the school. Thank you so much, SkillsforUs. I am grateful to the entire team and especially to Mr. Mark”
“I was really so enlightened with today’s session. The way Mr. Mark sailed us through strategic leadership—it was so, so enlightening. The way we are going to carry it down the hierarchy back to my school, I think everyone will benefit. Thank you!”
“For initiating this workshop of this capacity, the quantum impact by SkillsforUs. In fact, it’s a very impactful session that we’re having here, and we believe that the strategic leadership program, which he has initiated, will help us delve deeper into ourselves. He was saying things that we know, but maybe we never realized, so thanks to Mark for creating and curating such a workshop, which is unique in itself.”
