Bridging gaps between education and the business of life and work
Student Leadership Programme
The LEAD Curriculum builds a strong sense of purpose among young people, through excellence and community action in the world of work. By helping students recognize their potential to make a difference in their community as a leader, they can develop a mindset that leads to success and personal significance. This enables them to be better versions of themselves, as global citizens, that goes beyond grades.
We blend students with working staff from corporates such as IBM, Santander UK, BBC and Lloyds Banking Group. In this way, the curriculum reinforces its learning by allowing both students and the staff to practice by doing.
