First things first
The edupreneurs we search for

Right now, this is the most challenging school in the country, and we want you to be its new principal.'

Dave was twenty-seven when he received this phone call.

Two years later, a planeload of school and system leaders, philanthropists and education experts landed on the dusty outback runway near his school. With notepads in hand, they asked him how the school had been turned around so quickly.

They wanted to know what the solution had been at this school, so they could also apply it elsewhere. But Dave's answer was not what they expected.

If you want to know the answers, I can give you some of them, but the majority of them will come from my team.'

Dave had spent two years creating an environment among his staff, students and community where they all felt like they could identify problems in the school, create solutions to these problems and make things better.

Aaron received a similar call to Dave's when he was twenty-five.

This school is broken. We want you to come and lead it.'

A year later, he left the East African school and slum he had called home, content that the school had seen dramatic improvements in attendance, student wellbeing and achievement, and staff retention. He also knew that the best solutions had not come from him; rather, his role had been to create an environment where everyone in the school was solving problems and getting better, every day.

In 2010, we were both invited to speak at a conference. Aaron was a social entrepreneur, working to improve the lives of people living in extreme poverty in Africa with his organisation Spark* International. Dave was the director of what is likely the world's largest education region, near the famous Uluru in Australia.

Over a drink later that day, we traded stories of schools that we had led, and realised that our leadership approaches were almost identical. Early in our careers we had both realised that our job as leaders was to unleash the passion and innovation of our staff, rather than try to solve all of the problems ourselves. At the time, Aaron was trying to unleash grassroots innovation at scale by finding and backing entrepreneurs in very poor communities, and Dave was trying to build a movement of innovative and highly effective teachers and school leaders across his region. We were doing the same thing, in different parts of the world. We now wondered if we could work together to build something great. We called the idea edupreneurship' and made a plan for Aaron to travel to the outback a few months later to spend time with some of Dave's best teachers to help them lead improvements in their schools.

That night we had no idea that the word edupreneur' had been coined more than a decade before. The next morning, Aaron typed the word into Google and read that it had come into popularity in the early 2000s, and was used to describe tech entrepreneurs, often with MBAs, who had built education websites for kids. We had huge respect for these kinds of people and knew they were doing great things for education, but this was not what we had been talking about! The term had been hijacked!

We wanted to see if we could bring the energy and innovation of the startup world into schools and unleash teacher-led innovations; brilliant ideas created by teachers who worked in classrooms and worked every day to change things for kids.
