Andy Buck

A geography teacher by trade, Andy went on to become a headteacher for thirteen years at two schools in east London.  In his second headship, his school was judged outstanding and he was designated a National Leader of Education.  In 2009, he was appointed as a director at the National College for School Leadership and in 2012 was made Managing Director at one of the largest academy groups in the UK.  Andy has subsequently founded Leadership Matters which aims to improve the educational outcomes for pupils by supporting great leadership development. 

He has written seven books on leadership and coaching, including the best-selling ‘Leadership Matters’. In 2018, Andy was invited to become a Founding Fellow of the College of Teaching and in 2019 established The StARTed Foundation, which aims to support young talent in the performing arts. More recently he has set up a small independent publishing company, Cadogan Press.

As a headteacher, Andy was a regular contributor to GMTV.
