Dionne Jude
Co-Founder and Trainer
Dionne brings a wealth of expertise and a genuine passion for educational excellence to the FIIT Learning team. With over 27 years of experience in education, she has held numerous leadership roles, most recently as a Trust Director in Bromley. Her commitment to school improvement and student success is reflected in every step of her journey.
Driven by her experience as a headteacher, Dionne developed the FIIT Learning approach out of a deep frustration with the traditional curriculum and the often slow pace of learning that left many students unengaged and under-challenged. She recognised the urgent need for a more dynamic, personalised, and future-focused educational model that could keep up with the diverse needs of today’s learners.
With FIIT Learning, she reimagined education to be adaptable, hands-on, and transformative, ensuring that students not only progress academically but also develop the life skills necessary for real-world success. Her vision has shaped FIIT Learning into an approach that empowers both educators and students, creating an environment where meaningful, accelerated progress is the standard.
