He quickly learns that he must slow his pace and appreciate the beautiful countryside.Gervase Phinn is a teacher, freelance lecturer, author, poet, school inspector, educational consultant and visiting professor of education - but none of these is more important than his family.

He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts and an Honorary Fello of St John's College, York.
