About us

Inkgenius is a bootcamp created out of necessity. We, the founders, hadn't understood the demands of the UK's examination system, particularly for entrance to private schools and grammar schools.

With six months to go to the 7 plus exam, we understood that we were not ready. We simply had no idea how this system worked and so hadn't engaged the right resources at the right time.

The parents who succeed, seem to have planned for that outcome from an extraordinarily young age. We hadn't.

And so necessity (and urgency) was indeed the mother of invention.

Being able to write and also to code, we designed software that would accelerate our son's learning. We carried out three years' work in a few months, and succeeded.

Along the way we realised that the current methods for learning creative writing were incredibly inefficient, and could be dramatically speeded up using the latest technologies and learning techniques.

Today, a few years later, our children are keen writers - perhaps the greatest reward from this process.

We have spent time refining that first prototype to create a programme that can achieve the same results for others.
