As Dukes grows in prominence in the UK education sector, it is essential to us that the highest quality of education is cultivated in our schools and educational provisions. To that end, in September, Dukes launches its new Educational Advisory Board (EAB). A true representation of the great and the good in education today, we welcome Professor Mark Bailey, High Master of St Paul’s and Professor of Later Medieval History at UAE, David Goodhew, Headmaster of Latymer Upper, Christine Leslie, formerly of Godolphin & Latymer and the authority on quality prep and senior school education for London parents, and finally, William Russell, Deputy Chair and Trustee of the incredible Place2Be initiative which supports mental health in schools, to the Dukes team.

The EAB will provide thought-leadership, guide innovation, and promote best practice across the Dukes and our nurseries, schools, and experiences. Every member will also act as a governor to one of our schools, working with the leaders on the ground to make our provision even better.
