Andrew Knight
Managing Director
Andrew has worked in full-time homeschooling provision since 2009. In addition to his main focus in the back office, dealing with recruitment and account management among other things, he also has recent direct experience of being a full-time residential tutor.
In addition, Andrew’s background as a qualified teacher and in finance sector software development gives him an excellent perspective to help Beacon to be a successful provider of high-quality tuition solutions.
When not running the business, Andrew spends most of his time walking his spaniels and cycling.
