Our Origin Story
It all began with a chance meeting between Tony and Steve Oakes and Martin Griffin, whose groundbreaking books The A Level Mindset and GCSE Mindset were rapidly gaining recognition across UK schools.
Recognizing the potential to scale their proven methodology through technology, we built this platform to bring their strategies to students worldwide. Today, Steve and Martin provide direct training to schools while we manage this portal, delivering their mindset approach to over 600 schools globally.
