I recently had the pleasure of spending an afternoon at Bedales Prep School, and what an inspiring experience it was.
From the moment I arrived, the pupils’ curiosity, thoughtfulness, and willingness to explore big ideas around resilience and determination truly stood out. Their questions and reflections reminded me why I love doing what I do, helping young people discover the power they have to face challenges with strength and optimism.
A huge thank you to Simon Kingsley-Pallant for his warmth and enthusiasm in making the visit possible, and to Kath Connolly, whose behind-the-scenes brilliance ensured everything ran seamlessly (every speaker needs a Kath!).
It’s always a joy to discover schools like Bedales Prep, quietly doing remarkable work to nurture not just bright minds but kind hearts too.
If your school or organisation would like to inspire resilience, confidence, and self-belief in your students or team, I’d love to bring this message to you. 💯
