Bringing together those with a shared passion for developing metacognitive, self-regulating learners in one place. Progressive, informative and inspiring - take advantage of this chance to explore the latest and best practice to successfully develop metacognition in your school.
Our approach, delivered online or in-school, is centred around training educators to use a pedagogy which enables students to master a range of thinking skills, intelligent learning behaviours and metacognitive tools. But our approach is so much more than training….
We offer a range of consultancy and training, online or in-school, in the field of metacognitive education. Have a look at our services and how we can help you on the road to becoming a thinking organisation.
As well as supporting schools in the UK, Thinking Matters works in partnership with a growing network of international educational organisations who, under licence, have adopted the Thinking Matters approach.
‘The ‘thinking school’ ethos pervades all aspects of school life and accounts for highly reflective leaders, managers, teachers, and pupils… Contact us for further information and next steps; have a conversation, visit an existing Thinking School, learn more about metacognition, thinking skills and our approach.

Recently we were discussing the EEF guidance report about Metacognition and Self-regulation as a team; it's always good to go back and read the key document! It was great to have a conversation about all the different elements and tools we can give to develop a self-regulating learner. At Thinking Matters, the student is at the heart of our ‘Big Picture’, surrounded by the knowledge, tools and strategies to help them develop as independent, self-regulated learners..
This term has been a wonderful opportunity to hear from a range of different schools talking very honestly and openly about what it means to them ‘to become a Thinking School’ and what it involves to get started and how to keep the momentum. I am very grateful to the schools that have willingly opened their doors, invited us in and talked in detail about what metacognition means to them..
