The Centre for High Performance (informally The Centre) is a research group of senior faculty at Kingston University, Duke CE, London Business School, and Green Templeton College, Oxford University that specialises in organisational performance and works with British Boxing, Eton College, the Royal College of Art, and the Royal Shakespeare Company among others. Founded by Alex Hill, associate professor at Kingston University and Ben Laker, Lecturer at Kingston University, contributions are made from Liz Mellon, executive director at Duke Corporate Education; Jules Goddard, Fellow at London Business School and Terry Hill, emeritus fellow at Green Templeton College, Oxford University.
Between 2010 and 2015 The Centre observed improvement made by 160 academy schools after they were put into special measures by OfSTED. The collected data was shared with Andrew Day, executive director (CEO) of The Northumberland Church of England Academy; Carolyn Robson CBE, executive principal of Rushey Mead Academy; David Bateson OBE, chair of EMLC Academy Trust Strategic Board; George Gyte, adviser to the Department for Education and Tony Blair's Prime Minister's Delivery Unit; Professor Sir George Berwick, CEO of Challenge Partners; Dame Sally Coates, Director of Academies for United Learning and Laura McInerney, Guardian columnist and editor of Schools Week, who described it as "some of the most powerful and engaging ever seen in education research".
