There’s so much joy to be had in education, whether you’re teaching, learning, or simply seeing others flourish.
When Aatif Hassan founded Dukes in 2015, he was driven by the thing that gave him most joy – working with children and helping them develop into extraordinary young people. He was inspired by great education and wanted to build something really special in the sector.
Since time immemorial, the best education has always had the same thing at its core — wonderful teachers spending quality time with students. So, building closer connections between people was a natural place to begin with Dukes.
Dukes Education set out to build a collection of schools who could share and learn from each other, while still having the freedom to do what they do best.
Today, the Dukes family is home to some of the finest independent nurseries, schools, and colleges, as well as summer schools, day camps, and consultancy services — all united in their passion for nurturing students and helping them thrive.
In the Dukes education family we’re proud of how far we’ve come, but we’re excited to go further – and to keep enjoying ourselves along the way.
