Independent Thinking

For over twenty years, Independent Thinking has been helping schools help young people be even better, both in the classroom and beyond. We aren't a speakers bureau, although our Associates are some of the world's leading educational speakers and practitioners. We aren't a consultancy, although we are more than happy to work with you to help you be... come great at what you do. We aren't a panel of educational experts because we don't believe there is such a thing. We aren't a publishing company, although the Independent Thinking Press has won awards for its ground-breaking education books. And we aren't a training company because, well, the word 'training' comes from the Latin 'to drag'. We don't employ people, own fancy offices or produce glossy magazines and, because we were set up to make a difference not a profit, we put back as much as possible into our work. In fact, to sum up what we think and see if we are right for you, see how many of our principles you agree with below? There is always another way. The most important thing to get right is the well-being of the child. Teaching children to think for themselves is of critical importance. Teachers are humans too. So are school leaders.Read More
