Our Values
Everything we do is guided by our Worldview. We believe it’s the greatest time to be alive, but young people today face challenges ranging from exam pressures to social media comparison culture.
We want to support schools to help pupils make the most of the positive changes in the world, rather than feeling constrained by them.
We believe in:
Active Thinking
We believe we should all have a bias towards agency of thought and action. This mindset opens up the potential for great possibilities and greater fulfilment, unencumbered by the expectations of others.
