Independent Thinking is a unique family of some of the world’s most innovative and creative minds. The brain-child of the ‘Thunking man’ Ian Gilbert, ITL have been at the forefront of education for the last twenty years.

Their philosophy is to “do things no one does or do things everyone does in a way no one does” so that learning is continually challenged by taking risks and being different thus engaging children, teachers and educational practitioners in transforming 21C learning.

Independent Thinking is more of a network than a company and more of a movement than an organisation.

Were this world an endless plain, and by sailing eastward we could for ever reach new distances, and discover sights more sweet and strange than any Cyclades or Islands of King Solomon, then there were promise in the voyage. But in pursuit of those far mysteries we dream of, or in tormented chase of that demon phantom that, some time or other, swims before all human hearts; while chasing such over this round globe, they either lead us on in barren mazes or midway leave us whelmed.
