About us

We’re on a mission to make learning captivating for all learners, everywhere.

Our story

Boclips was founded with the goal of organizing the world’s finest educational videos and podcasts for courseware creators of all stripes. This is made possible by our network of content partners, our amazing international team, and our shared belief that education, when done right, can ignite a lifelong passion for learning — for everyone, regardless of their location or learning style.

Tom, our founder’s son, left primary school struggling with dyslexia - unable to meaningfully read or write. Traditional textbooks and classroom lessons simply hadn't worked for him.

Tom began to excel in secondary school with the help of online videos. Which got our TV exec founder wondering: Why did Tom have to spend hours finding the right video content to teach himself? How come courseware hadn't yet caught up with what was going on outside classrooms and the potential of the technology within them?
