The main Get Good® At School presentation is…
Letting the students know how long they have been in school and that time is short
Encouraging them to understand if they are in school they can achieve
Finding out how they feel about the coming year in school
The Why – why we are at school/why we do things
The How – practical tips on working hard, procrastination and getting good over time
The Keeping On Going – resilience tips
The conclusion and the one thing they need to know right now
(All wrapped up in good story-telling, humour, videos with a dash of hope)
The optional follow up workshop is designed to be interactive, responsive and to go a bit deeper:
We does a warm up game and a movement game based on choices (we need a hall or big room for this session)
We good deeper on the feelings part of my talk – asking them how they feel about the year and that their feelings are not set in stone
Then we recap the main talk very briefly and answer any questions raised
And we end with some other top tips and an exercise where they fill in a short visual worksheet to help them know where they need to grow, work harder and also celebrate their successes

More about Lee
“Lee is an innovative and inspiring speaker who quickly builds a rapport with his audience. His energetic and interactive approach keeps young people motivated and engaged at all times. Through clever use of media and humour, Lee not only entertains but delivers a powerful and important message.”
Widening Participation Activities Manager, Leeds Metropolitan University
Lee has worked in education for over eighteen years. He has learnt over this time what makes young people tick and how we can inspire them to achieve more. Getting the best out of people has dominated his career, experience and study; and is at the core of all he does. Having spoken to young people in dozens of schools, prisons and youth groups, Lee brings all of his experience and solid research to his presentations and workshops. Lee is refreshing, insightful and practical – and uses success stories (and a few of his mishaps) to communicate clearly to young people, leaving them with practical take away action points.
His visual and funny multi-media presentations are a welcome break from scripted lectures and ‘death-by-powerpoint’. Where else can you learn from Colonel Sanders and Susan Boyle in one presentation?!
“Lee’s presentation had the students more interested and engaged than I’d ever seen them before.”
Aimhigher Co-ordinator, The Community Science College @ Thornhill (community school)
Lee addresses self-esteem, confidence, motivation and ambition. He helps young people understand that how they look at themselves and others has a great effect on daily motivation and their long-term future.
It can be quite easy to get young people excited with a great presentation, but what happens the next day and the week after that? Lee understands that many people are asking “yes, we want to stay motivated, we want to achieve more, BUT HOW?”
So, Lee the motivational school’s speaker brings long-lasting insights and tools that go beyond the “buzz” of a good talk. During 2008/9 Lee worked closely with Carr Manor High School developing their Pupil Enrichment Programme days. Together they have succeeded in doing genuine cross-curriculum learning covering PSHCE, SRE, wellbeing, motivation, careers and citizenship in seven excellent days (plus staff training) with varied learning styles.
Lee’s vast experience helps him communicate to a wide range of young people including urban and suburban schools, adjusting his material and delivery to suit.
“Lee is able to do that rare thing in an inner-city high school. He is able to challenge, reassure and amuse a potentially reluctant audience. It is through his ability to talk with conviction and with transparent honesty that draws the pupils and staff to listen carefully and reflect on the content and context…”
Headteacher, Carr Manor High School, Leeds (community school)
