The GO Network organised numerous meetings with agencies who he felt would give us a good flavour of what was out there, and these were really valuable in helping us find the right fit. The whole process made it easier to ensure we found a partner that aligned with our business needs."<cite>Claudia Ireland · Marketing and Communications Manager, Consilium Academies</cite></blockquote> <div class="gn-divider gn-reveal" aria-hidden="true"></div> <h2 class="gn-reveal">The Appointment</h2> <p class="gn-reveal"><strong>Kenyons</strong>, a brand and creative agency with a strong portfolio in the education sector, was selected to lead the brand refresh project.</p> <p class="gn-reveal">Their work will include the development of revised brand guidelines and refreshed templates that reflect the Trust's commitment to clarity, consistency, and excellence across all communication materials.</p> <aside class="gn-quote gn-reveal"><q>This was a focused, high-impact project with clear objectives.
