Our Community Team has teamed up with the award winning charity XLP to continue to support young people from Chobham Academy. The team run weekly mentoring sessions in the school through qualified counsellor, Esana Isori.

Withing the community there is a problem with low school attendance among young people. Our programme aims to empower young people attend school and succeed. We know that living in London can present many different challenges and therefore we want to equip students with the skills needed to navigate the circumstances, gain qualifications and to feel proud of their achievements.

This is done through a combination of long term 1-2-1 support, group mentoring, literacy and numeracy training.

Throughout our time with students Esana’s programme helps:

  • Develop their mental wellbeing and life skills
  • Receive support with understanding their career choices
  • Learn to self manage any behavioural issues
  • Build more positive peer relationships
  • Understand the outlets available to them
