Ladies Who LaunchED!

On International Women’s Day 2024, renowned educator, Businesswoman, Founder and CEO of Chatsworth Schools, Anita Gleave established a brand new community for female founders within education – Ladies who LaunchED!

Why? 

You can’t be what you can’t see and Anita believes there are many ladies out there who have or want to start something in the ED space. They want to follow their dream, they want to make a difference they want to change the world. Ladies who LaunchED! want to celebrate the success of those who have and the entrepreneurs, businesswomen and dreamers in the world of EDucation.

How? 

By meeting, sharing, focussing, empowering and shining a light on women at all stages of their journey….by holding out our hands.

When?

NOW and every day.

We will be sharing more information about community events and support for aspiring female founders very soon. You can apply to join LWL! by completing the application:

Anita Gleave

What have you LaunchED?

I have been involved in the founding of multiple independent and international schools and school groups. Most recently, I founded and launched Chatsworth Schools, a global schools group that has grown to 16 schools and nurseries in the UK and Saudi Arabia in less than 6 years.

I am also the founder of this new community - Ladies who LaunchED! with the ambition of creating a supportive and inspiring community for female founders in all areas of education.

What's your LaunchED pledge?

To continue to hire and promote the best person for every role within the Chatsworth Schools family. Regardless of their gender. We now have more female than male heads in our group because we give women the opportunity to show that they are the best person for senior roles in our organisation. That is sadly not an industry norm. I am also fully committed to growing Ladies who LaunchED! into a proactive and industry leading female founders community for the benefit of women around the world with ideas and ambition.

Faiza Mubeen

Director of Inclusion
Beech Hall School Riyadh

Faiza Mubeen

What have you LaunchED?

My educational journey has been a dynamic and enriching one, marked by a commitment to fostering holistic wellbeing and inclusive education. Serving as a founding team member and School Wellbeing Counselor at Next Generation School in Dubai, a project initiated by the Al Rajhi Group, I played a pivotal role in shaping the school's ethos for three years. In a leadership capacity as Counselor and Inclusion Facilitator, I dedicated myself to creating a supportive and inclusive environment.

Following this, my journey led me to the Ajial Group of Education in Kuwait, where I assumed the responsibility of introducing a Positive Discipline Approach and Positive Curriculum across their 25 schools. My efforts were aimed at ensuring the overall wellbeing of students and fostering a positive learning atmosphere.

In 2022, I embarked on a new chapter at Beech Hall School in Riyadh, joining as the Founding Head of Inclusion. This institution, with a strong commitment to inclusive education, aligns its values with the KSA Vision 2030 and the international educational framework. I spearheaded the development of a model that integrates these principles, ensuring excellence in education and fostering an inclusive learning environment for all students.

What's your LaunchED pledge?

My LaunchED pledge is to actively mentor and support women in my professional network, providing guidance and sharing insights to help them advance in their careers. I will also strive to create opportunities for collaboration, networking, and skill-building among women in my industry.

Additionally, I commit to using my platform to amplify the voices of women in underrepresented fields, advocating for diversity and inclusion. I will continuously seek out opportunities to uplift and celebrate the achievements of women around me, fostering a supportive community that empowers each member to thrive both personally and professionally."

Almira Sirbayeva

Head of Marketing and Admissions
Beech Hall School Riyadh

Almira Sirbayeva

What have you LaunchED?

I joined the TechnoWomen organization in Astana, Kazakhstan in May 2023. My interest in the community was sparked during a meeting when TechnoWomen in Kazakhstan hosted their counterparts from the USA. The TechWomen program in the United States supports women in the IT industry and celebrates their achievements. Numerous speakers represented diverse areas of tech, including Cybersecurity, E-commerce, AI, and Engineering. Recognizing the opportunity to contribute to the community, I decided to represent the EdTech sector.

After attending several meetings and workshops tailored for members, I recognised the value of introducing Astana's girls to the TechnoWomen community. Given the predominance of men in tech careers, it is essential to encourage and empower girls to pursue roles such as app development, engineering, and beyond.

Despite the growing interest of girls in IT, engineering, STEM, and other tech-related fields, they encounter obstacles on their career paths. Becoming part of the TechnoGirls and TechnoWomen community provides young women in Kazakhstan with valuable insights into these careers and facilitates networking opportunities.

At my previous school, I encountered students interested in STEM and eager to pursue careers in these fields. Working in education allows me to share knowledge, contribute to society, and impact students' lives positively.

After facilitating an introduction between the President of TechnoWomen in Kazakhstan and the Head of Haileybury Astana, we launched TechnoGirls sessions. Led by successful women, this session featured personal journeys emphasising the importance of resilience and embracing failures as stepping stones to success. The TechnoGirls sessions were also conducted in various schools across Astana.

What's your LaunchED pledge?

I would like to replicate a similar initiative in Riyadh aimed at inspiring and empowering girls to pursue careers in technology. The initiative will involve organizing TechnoGirls sessions at Beech Hall School Riyadh, allowing girls studying there to learn more about careers in the tech industry from accomplished women in this field.
