Matthew Burton is an inspirational headteacher, and star of Channel 4’s multi award-winning documentary series, ‘Educating Yorkshire’. His style of teaching endeared him to audiences the country over, and the incredible breakthrough moment with Musharaf Asghar and his stammer brought millions of TV and YouTube viewers to tears. Now a headteacher (and still an English teacher), he is committed to achieving the very best for every child, and to ensure that barriers to opportunity – whatever they may be – are challenged and removed to allow every young person to be the very best they can be. Matthew’s first book Go Big published in 2020 and quickly became a bestseller. Go Big helps pupils tackle that big leap from primary to secondary school, offering advice on how to navigate exams, overcome peer pressure and start building toward their future goals. Matthew’s second book, Back on Track, publishes this July and is an inspiring school handbook for students navigating uncertain times. After the most challenging year ever, Back on Track is here to help pupils feel confident and motivated again.
