CoachBright
We want a world in which every young person’s destination is based on their choice, ambitions and talents, rather than their background. We coach young people to be independent, reflective and resilient so they can lead the lives they want.
ABOUT US: 

CoachBright is a social mobility charity, established in 2014, which aims to make education fairer. We do this by pairing volunteers with pupils from less-advantaged backgrounds, providing them with academic coaching that aims to improve their grades, confidence, independence and resilience. 

 

Over the last academic year, we have worked with over 4000 pupils across our 4 main hubs: London, the South East, South West and West Midlands. With the support of a fantastic community of university student volunteers, we are able to provide pupils with relatable role models who support them in working towards their goals. 

 

WHY OUR WORK MATTERS: 

There is a growing attainment gap in the UK between disadvantaged pupils and their wealthier peers. This is exacerbated when pupils have lower confidence in their own abilities and potential. Upward social mobility is made even harder when pupils lack relatable role models who have been to university or have professional occupations. We want to change this!

HOW WE ARE DIFFERENT: 

We use a coaching approach when supporting young people. This means we focus on developing confidence, resilience and independence alongside academic attainment.
