Patrick was a teacher for nearly twenty years in teaching before becoming an EdTech Entrepreneur. He was a Head of Sixth Form from 2009, with results in the top 10% nationwide. His leadership was judged to be outstanding by Ofsted in their 2019 inspection. At its heart, learning is about making links, both between ideas and between people. As a teacher Patrick’s mission is to bring about eudaimonia, the flourishing of human potential, through learner-centred education. Outside the classroom he is a songwriter and musician (three albums recorded to date) writer (one science-fiction novel), and distance-runner (three marathons so far). These past-times reflect his creativity, precision, and tenacity, all of which are essential for helping people become better learners.
