'Do things no-one does or do things everyone does in a way no-one does'
Independent Thinking is one of UK's leading providers of people, knowledge, ideas and inspiration to help make a genuine and lasting difference to education.
And as our motto above indicates, we are determined to do it in a way that you won't find anywhere else. That's why we work with unique people in innovative ways and even offer an 'All or Nothing' Guarantee. If you book us but don't think we're any good, then don't pay.
For over ten years we have worked with young people, teachers, school leaders, parents, governors and, frankly, anyone who would listen, helping them better understand the nature of thinking, learning, achievement and creativity in - and beyond - school.
And they keep paying us.
Led by educational innovator and speaker Ian Gilbert, Independent Thinking brings you a growing and unique list of Associates with a track record of innovation and achievement in many different fields, all of which can contribute to your own work to help schools become all they can - and should be - in the 21st century.
We very much practise the 'show, not tell' idea. Anyone can read a book, put on a grey suit, knock out a PowerPoint presentation and claim to be an expert. We, on the other hand, will show you what we do so that you can do it too.
You might not always agree with us but don't tell us it doesn't work because it does.
This website is designed to tell you about who we are, what we do, how we do it and how we can help you do it too. It also contains a growing bank of free articles, handouts, links and other 'cool stuff' to help you take education forward into the 21st century.
And if you are wondering about the photographs adorning these pages they come from Independent Thinking's Around Deeply expedition in 2005, one of the innovative thinking projects we have set up.
