Learning to Lead
Learning to Lead provided SBY’s first opportunity to work with primary aged students and their families. We are now in our fifth year, delivering the programme in five primaries.
95% of parents/carers said that their child had grown in confidence as a result of being on the programme.
Developing Confidence
This programme aims to develop the children’s self-worth, confidence and enable them to get fully involved in their school community as well as the community of Hartcliffe and Bristol. For the first two years of the programme we work with key stage two students on a range of activities including visits to Bristol Zoo Project, Clifton Suspension Bridge, Aerospace and Tobacco Factory Theatre. We aim to support children in their transition to year 7 and now also run Learning To Lead in three secondary school.
