In this episode, Gershom and Jax Aitchison (Headmaster and Executive Head of Education Incorporated) talk to Mike Stopforth (Director at Beyond Binary) about his decision to move his young daughter from a corporate-owned private school to an independently run private school. He discusses his experience of two private schools with similar fee structures but very different cultures: one whose leadership is driven by shareholders; the other whose leadership is driven by quality relationships, and the effect of these leadership styles on the culture of the schools as a whole.
