James is passionate about improving the quality of education and has helped launch several chains. These have invested in curriculum, assessment and teacher training, and looked for economies of scale. He is also a committed mentor to self-help associations of low-cost private schools around the world. These engage in raising quality of educational provision too, as well as ensuring that governments know the positive contribution low-cost private education is making.
