The multi-academy trust model
This partnership model combines our programme, resources, training, and events with teacher-led in-school sessions. In this way, young people benefit from our expertise in skills development and youth-led social action, whilst teachers and schools have the freedom to adapt the programme in a way that best suits the needs of their students.
Does it work?
87% of young people believe participating in the programme helped them improve their essential skills.
88% of participants would recommend the programme to another student.
91% of young people want to continue involvement in social action after participating in the programme.
The Co-op Academies Trust
With the support and funding of the Co-op Foundation, we designed and delivered a bespoke multi-academy trust (MAT) model. This three-year youth-led social action programme was piloted in 10 Co-op Multi Academies Trust schools.
Teams of year 8 students from Co-op Academies across the North-West of England worked to produce their own social action project, tackling an issue they face in their school.
