Nick is the Head of College at the United World College of SE Asia, East Campus. As a leader in the largest international school in the world, which is itself one of the global group of 18 United World Colleges, Nick's primary commitment is to the UWC Mission to make education a force to unite people, nations and cultures for people and a sustainable future.

His interests lie in creating a vibrant school culture that nudges children at an age where small nudges create big changes in the trajectory of their lives - towards making a meaningful contribution to the Mission.

Nick has previously worked at established international schools of excellence (Sevenoaks School, UK, International School of Geneva, Switzerland), a young school of ambition (Aga Khan Academy, Kenya) and local public community school (Cheney School, UK). He's also served as International Baccalaureate Chief Assessor for Theory of Knowledge and Vice Chair of the IB Examining Board. A textbook author, IB examiner, workshop leader and strategic consultant, he writes widely on educational matters (his blog can be found here) and has degrees from the University of Cambridge, University of Oxford and the Open University.
