To grow your partnerships this year, you need to align with how school and nursery decision makers think. 

This is exactly why I run the Approaching Schools Challenge… because in this free one week training, we don’t just tweak your emails - we retrain your brain from parent-selling to education-partner thinking.

That’s when schools and nurseries stop feeling intimidating…and start feeling logical instead!

If you’ve ever thought:

• “I know schools and nurseries need what I do, but I don’t know how to position it”
• “I freeze when it comes to outreach”
• “I’m great with parents but stuck with schools”

Then the Approaching Schools Challenge is the best place to start!

Come and join us at https://www.ceryskeneally.co.uk

And once you’ve felt that shift?

That’s when working with me and my team this year in the Approaching Schools Academy becomes the natural next step… because it’s where this thinking becomes repeatable, professional and measured, so you can grow your business sustainably this year.

With thanks to our sponsors at LoveAdmin

If you run a children’s activity business, you’ll know this already.  The hard part isn’t the sessions.

It’s everything that sits around them.  The bookings, the payments, the messages, the registers, the forms… all the moving parts that come with trying to run something properly.  That’s where our partner LoveAdmin comes in.  It’s not about being the simplest system on the market.

It’s about having the right things in place.  The kind of functionality that actually reflects how children’s activity businesses are run, and gives you the visibility and control you need as you grow.

So instead of patching things together or outgrowing your setup every year, you’ve got one system that supports you to run more efficiently and build something sustainable.  If admin is starting to feel like a blocker rather than a support, it’s worth a look…

Having worked with 8,551 providers in the Approaching Schools Challenge, I’ve realised that following up is actually the biggest challenge most people have.  If that’s you, I want to share something with you.  Click to open WhatsApp, type “Follow Up” and press send.  I’ll let you in on the biggest difference I see between providers who get schools and nursery contracts after the challenge and those who don’t!

💎 Introducing the VIBE Mastermind - Valuing Impact, Building Enrichment.

It’s a year-long mastermind for established providers who are already partnering with schools or nurseries and want to scale with more strategy, more confidence, and more community.

Inside VIBE, we’ll meet every month online - and every quarter in person - to plan, grow and lead together.

We’ll map your income, impact and visibility, refine your offers, and design your next chapter in education through dedicated Legacy Lab sessions. 

It’s not a course.  It’s a community for leaders.

And this week, I’m opening applications for the Founding Cohort.

Founding Members will receive:

Lifetime access to the 50% Founding Member Rate (£3,000 + VAT per year or £300 + VAT per month - min 12 months)

• At least 12 months of coaching, collaboration and clarity
• Quarterly in-person VIBE Days (Birmingham, London, South Wales TBC)
• Monthly group strategy calls + private WhatsApp accountability group
• Legacy Lab innovation sessions to design your next big idea
• Hot-seats for every member, plus personal reviews of your CEO Dashboard data & KPIs

Applications are open this week, and I’ll be personally reviewing each one.
If accepted, we’ll book a short call to talk through your goals and next steps.

 If you’ve ever left an event feeling on fire but then watched the momentum fade when the inbox takes over, VIBE is what stops that.

It’s the next chapter for those who already have success in schools and nurseries…
and are ready to scale that impact without losing the heart behind it. 

You’ve built a business. Now it’s time to build your legacy.

Simply email [email protected] to get started with your application today.
