The Co-Founders
Two school leaders with over 55 years of combined experience across the UK and internationally. Still practising. Still accountable. Still making the decisions the LANDMARK framework assesses every day.
Executive Headteacher of three primary schools across four sites on the Isle of Man — holding executive responsibility on behalf of the Isle of Man Government through the Department of Education, Sport and Culture. An IQM assessor across the UK, Northern Ireland, the Middle East and India, and a podcaster and writer on school leadership through his platform Manx Maxim — Built for Leadership. Max brings a rare combination of multi-school executive leadership, quality mark assessment experience across four countries, and a deep conviction that leadership is the single most important variable in any school.
An executive education leader with over 30 years of experience, including 25 years in senior leadership across the UK and international settings. Suzanne has led schools across England and the Isle of Man, founded and led an international primary school in the Middle East, and brings a genuinely global perspective on what excellent leadership looks like across cultures and contexts. As a qualified British Schools Overseas (BSO) Inspector — a DfE-approved, Ofsted-monitored inspection framework — she is one of a select group of practitioners formally credentialled to assess British school quality on the international stage.
