About Marcus Orlovsky
Marcus is passionate about education, and really helping young people to find their path. With a background in finance, real estate and tech, he was heavily involved in designing and building new schools in the UK. He was advised, and he hoped, that with a new building, education would improve. Not so. He came to realise that, after 300 new schools, what was needed was a change in attitude from both teachers and students. Grades and marks, so loved as a measure of success, is not enough. Ability to learn fast, ability to think, discuss and work as a team is what's needed in society - but there are no grades or assessments. Soft skills, all so needed in life, tend to be overlooked in schools. He's now worked with nearly 100,000 students, generally drawn from those less likely to 'achieve' with astonishing success. The social enterprise Marcus founded empowers students to be inquisitive and seek out their own pathways: to become the pilots of their journey rather than just the passengers. In his spare time, Marcus hosts a number of TEDx events, has spoken at many, and is asked to speak at major conferences globally.
Marcus is a Chartered Accountant and had a major stroke seven years ago. He delivered the opening keynote for the National Association of Head Teachers' annual conference fourteen days later.
