What we do

Our concern is with effective education reform and high quality management, using experience gained in many international situations. With our experience we are able to work at a variety of levels in the system, including in national ministries, regional offices and individual schools.

As a group of senior experienced consultants we have worked in the public and private sectors to support management development including the development of education systems, schools and teachers world-wide.
Clarity of thinking and precision in recommendations are particularly important to us, and we believe are critical to success.
We provide all the skills and experience of the large management consultancy firms but with a level of flexibility and responsiveness which is only possible in a relatively small and tightly managed organisation. The principals of Merganser have all worked successfully at senior levels in very large global organisations, and know their strengths – and also their limitations.
We strongly believe that the end user, whether that is client, citizen, child or teacher should be at the heart of priorities – we believe in trying hard to demonstrate by our own actions the values we subscribe to.
