Neil Mayers is the author of Gifted at Primary failing by Secondary. After advising hundreds of parents over his 15 years as a teacher in England and the USA; and witnessing his unorthodox methods result in top exam results for 95% of his students, he decided to put his knowledge in a book.

He will speak about ways to engage ‘disruptive’ and ‘hard to reach’ pupils from a teachers perspective and what parents can do to revitalise their childs  interest or performance in school. He will also share what battles he fought to make sure the children in his classes achieved academic excellence and strategies to combat institutional discrimination.
