When I was working at the London School of Economics summer school, I realised that quality education was hugely attractive to international students, but was only reaching the very few who would afford the opportunity.

I also witnessed the incredible impact that great teachers, interested peers and new ideas had on every single student in the room.

The challenge was how to reverse this model? Instead of bringing students OUT to learn, we bring educators IN to teach.

The world is facing two crises in education: the growing inequality gap among students; and an antiquated education system that is not fit for purpose in the 21st century.

We can fix these two problems.

Students everywhere have potential, this is not dependent on social background, economic status, or location. A good teacher will draw that potential out and transform it into a force of nature. Good teaching begins with treating the students respectfully, stimulating their interests and learning through relevant and engaging activities, and ensuring they are developing skills that will prepare them for the realities of the job market.

The same goes for teachers. Educators in most countries face considerable challenges to remain motivated in a profession that can become repetitive, is poorly resourced and increasingly administrative. WE create opportunities for teachers to travel, encounter new ideas, network, publish and grow through our education programmes and our in-house Think Tank. They return energised, inspired and empowered.
