Upward Bound

Upward Bound continues to strive to deliver high quality provision to Islington young people. Upward Bound is working in partnership with The Senior Leader Network (SLN) and Islington Secondary Schools Colleges Leaders (ISSCL) to support a proposed Islington inclusion pathway and the wider education plan. We have been funded by The Dame Alice Owen Foundation for the last 20 years.

Students take part in:

  • Science, English & Maths lessons
  • Creative workshops (like poetry writing & life skills)
  • 3-day residential trip
  • Post-16 careers support
  • Access to mentors, professionals & uni life
  • Breakfast, community, and fun

Every class is supported by four layers: a qualified teacher, group leader, student ambassador, and peer mentor – many of whom are Upward Bound alumni themselves.

If your organisation is interested in sponsoring, supporting or partnering the work of the FED, please contact us.

Woohoo!
