Our people

Community Associates

As part of our model at Learning Creates we employ and empower young individuals aged 15-25, with diverse backgrounds, skills, interests and lived expertise and equip them to spearhead community-based initiatives nationwide.

Core Team

We're a tight-knit team of six, passionately driving Learning Creates day to day work. As a catalyst organisation, we maintain a small core team, prioritising collaboration to foster transformative change in education, with equity at our core.

Board of Directors

Our small multi-generational board has a rich depth of expertise in strategy, co-design, community engagement, education policy, new models for working with young people, the future of work, law, finance and governance.
