About Us

School Timetable Training, Support and Consultancy

Education Time was set up by two outstanding practitioners (not our words we hasten to add but a summary from the testimonials).

Rob and Paul set up this business to use their background and experience to make an impact in schools, academies and colleges across the country. Although they are both London based they have worked with schools in Bristol, Immingham, Liverpool, Oldham, Devon, Manchester, Birmingham, Sheffield, Hereford, Portsmouth plus a large number in Greater London. 

Since 2018 Education-Time have expanded internationally and have been commissioned to work with or are currently working with:

  • The Cayman Islands Government, commissioned by KPMG
  • Schools in Japan, Hong Kong, Munich and Australia … our work for one Australian school was recently presented at a Headteachers’ conference in Adelaide

Rob and Paul are happy to visit you anywhere in England or overseas and discuss your specific needs. Here's some more background on them.

Rob Cooper

Rob's background and training has been centred on raising standards and school improvement. Five years with London Challenge meant that Rob's role as an associate Head, then Head ensured that he was at the sharp end of the standards agenda.

During Rob's Headship GCSE results increased from 26% 5 x A* - C EM to 50%, to 69% in consecutive years. This made John Paul II school the top performing school in London and in the top 2% nationally. Rob's firm belief is that the curriculum and curriculum planning is key to success.

Following Headship Rob ran the Sheffield Challenge with David Woods and had a spell as a Consultant Head.

Rob is Ofsted trained and has either led or been part of a number of 'Mocksted' inspections. 

Paul Cuff

Paul's background in Computer Science and Data lead him to the Education Sector, originally a Network Manager he has supported schools across the country and has been timetabling for twenty years. 

Paul's expertise is in the Options Process, Curriculum Modelling and Timetabling in Nova T6, he enjoys the challenge of timetabling and finding solutions to problems that scheduling often throws up. 

In addition to Rob and Paul, Education Time have a team of experienced professionals who work closely with the founding partners as the need arises
