Oppidan Education - Expert Impact

Walter Kerr,

Oppidan Education

Met with Jim Cregan

Oppidan Education supports thousands of children through one-to-one mentoring programmes privately and in schools and universities across the world.

Founded in 2016, Henry and Walter set up Oppidan to tackle the anxiety-driven education market in the U.K and to pioneer mentoring as the research-led value-add support system for children aged 8-18.

Kind, informative, down-to-earth and a great storyteller – Jim’s advice on business and on managing people is gospel for any aspiring entrepreneur.
