Our story

After the birth of his son Nai, Cennydd John started to consider all those things that parents spend their nights and days worrying about: what would Naiโ€™s future be like? How could he help? How was he going to juggle work and fatherhood? All the usual questionsโ€ฆ

Cenn incorporated Hatching Dragons in 2014 and expanded it in 2018, launching a second school in Westminster to meet the burgeoning demand for bilingual education in central London.

Nowadays, Hatching Dragons is at the front of the bilingual education movement. We work with some of the worldโ€™s leading education research institutions on the bilingualism implications on child development. Furthermore, we are increasing our partnerships with some of Chinaโ€™s leading schools to train their teachers in bilingual delivery and to host travelling Chinese families who come to the UK explicitly for their children to be educated in the Hatching Dragons method.
