Meet the Cornerstones Team

Simon Hickton

CEO – Digital platform, finance, sales & retention

As a former primary head of ten years, leading the team here at Cornerstones is a real privilege. My main areas of expertise are school leadership, assessment and the role of ed tech in reducing teacher and senior leader workload. Developing our digital curriculum platform Maestro, has been a real labour of love but knowing how much it has helped schools to reduce their workload makes it all worthwhile.

Melanie Moore

CEO – Curriculum, marketing & international relations

As a former primary deputy headteacher and teacher of over 30 years I remain incredibly passionate about teaching, learning, leadership and curriculum development in the UK and internationally. Over the last ten years I’ve written and produced multiple curriculums and have recently written my first book about curriculum design – Curriculum Simplexity released by Routledge September 2024.
