Biography

Matt started working in mainstream education in 2009 after 25 years with a Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) charity and is now CEO of Pathways Education. He has also completed his doctorate on self-determination theory in education. Matt created Meaningful Mastery, a project-based learning curriculum for the 21st Century, which is showing incredible results across all aspects of school data. He also lectures on a number of leadership Masters courses and is the Director of the National College of Education’s MBA programme. Matt is driven to define best practice in education for the 21st century. He draws on the development of the self and systems, as well as conscious leadership to create that best practice. With Complete, Matt’s passion is to unlock the capacity of others in education. His vision is for EQ to receive equal recognition to IQ in education.

“We can unlock the capacity of leaders in education if we take an approach that focuses on our emotional selves, not just targets. It is my ambition to have EQ recognised alongside IQ in education.”

Matt’s ground breaking work in intrinsic motivation and development in the curriculum has established his school as a UK best practice leader.

Matt is driven to understand the complex needs of learners and this has given him great insight into managing teams and integrating diverse strengths into achieving rapid strategic outcomes.
