Philip Bowman
Co-Founder & CEO, MARIO Education
Philip Bowman is the Co-Founder and CEO of MARIO Education and EdTech Digest’s School Leader of the Year. After 18 years in learning support, Philip launched MARIO Education to help schools make meaningful 1:1 conversations more common, consistent, and effective.
“Students rarely say everything all at once. They reveal themselves through patterns, pauses, check-ins, conversations, and trust. And when a student finally shares what is really going on, the school needs to be ready, not just with concern, but with a system of support.”
