Why we are seeking Founders and Guides, rather than learners?

After spending time exploring how Acton Academy could serve New Zealand families, we have come to realise that the greatest opportunity may be to identify and support the right people to carry this vision forward.

Rather than focusing on student enrolment, we are now focused on finding founders, operators, and community builders who are passionate about learner-driven education and excited about creating something meaningful for future generations.

We believe the future of Acton Academy in New Zealand will be built by courageous people who are willing to take the first step.

Let us know if you are interested, we’d love to have a chat.

At Acton Academy, every child is a hero in the making,
capable of achieving extraordinary things!

    I am confident that any randomly-selected ten-year-old from Acton would have succeeded instantly where at least some MIT graduates failed.

  • Man in a suit and tie with a neutral expression against a white background.

    Acton Academy is one of the most important education developments in the world.

  • Smiling woman with blonde hair wearing a black jacket and blue necklace, standing outdoors.

    The most amazing outcome at Acton is that young heroes there are genuinely enthralled with learning. Simply said, they LOVE school.
