A discussion with Julian Appleyard OBE on his fantastic career so far and the importance of creating the right culture for learning and aspiration.

Julian Appleyard OBE, CEO at Pontefract Academies Trust joins Alps Senior Education Consultant, John Philip in our latest webinar.

The Trust's mission is "Running top-quality, high-achieving schools that give our children and young people the chance in life they deserve."

Watch as Julian and John discuss why the right aspirational culture is crucial in any School, College or Trust. They also explore the key strategies Julian implements in order to ensure the success of his culture so that all children and young people get the chance in life they deserve through a top-quality education.

"Irrespective of a young persons background... they get one chance at this game in education.... and so at whatever level if I can shape and influence kids' lives better so they get every chance and have the options at 16, at 18, to do what they want to do by the time they are 28... it's a great privilege"
