From The People Behind Paw Prints

★★★★★

"It's the most honest book I've read in a while about why our schools were built for a world that no longer exists, and what parents are quietly doing about it."

Al Kingsley MBE

CEO, NetSupport Group · Chair, Hampton Academies Trust

Written by Ben Whitaker & Steve Hope, Pick 'n' Mix Education is out now: a practical guide for parents who want more for their child than the system offers, built on real organisations already doing things differently, not just theory.

Questions

FAQs

How often does Paw Prints land in my inbox?

The newsletter is sent every Saturday morning (UK time) come rain or shine (unless Ben or Steve accidentally sends it on a Friday, which has happened more than once!). Every edition rounds up the latest from the Blog, Podcast and wider community, so you never miss what's happening.

Is Paw Prints really free?

Always. No paywall, no premium tier. It's part of how we get the word out, not a product we sell.

Will you sell or share my data?

No. Your email is used to send you Paw Prints and nothing else. Unsubscribe any time with one click.

Can I write a guest edition or article?

Yes. We run guest pieces regularly, and every contributor gets a thank-you bundle from our publishing partner, Crown House Publishing. Hit "Pitch An Idea" above to get started.

How can we become the Paw Prints partner?

Drop us a message via "Enquire About Partnering" above, we'll talk through what a single edition or a run of editions could look like.
