Simon Graffy

I founded and lead Inspiring Teachers, a nonprofit bridging evidence and action to provide tools and programs that help teachers in low-resource contexts improve learning outcomes in their classrooms.
Before focusing on Inspiring Teachers, I worked in tech startups and large nonprofits, where I learned a lot. I worked in great teams that secured multi-million dollar financing packages and delivered large-scale programs.

Before that, I set up LRTT, which was a social enterprise running cross-border teacher development programs. LRTT ran international fellowships for over 2500 teachers and school leaders and supported 15 organisations across 11 countries between 2010 and 2019.

I am proud to have co-organised and survived (!) a successful Guinness World Record attempt for the longest-ever football match. We played for 46.5 hours!
I enjoy meeting people, learning, and being highly collaborative, so I’d love to hear from you.
