Sunbury Manor School has a large and wide intake of students. The school aims to work with its students to remove any barriers to success, providing relentless support and raising aspirations for them and their families. Solutions-focussed mentoring is one of the ways in which challenging students can be enabled to remove barriers to success, a method which is preventative rather than reactionary.
Kick London offer bespoke solutions-focussed mentoring through their trained mentors who are also qualified sports coaches, thus allowing space for the young people to develop the skills necessary to identify solutions themselves to the challenges they face. Feedback from parents, students and heads of year have all been positive with progress, in some cases, described as being ‘astonishing’.
The High Sheriff acknowledged that there would regrettably always be more referrals than available places and that the HSYA grant had importantly helped ensure the continuation of the scheme through the Spring and Summer of 2019 to the benefit of many students at the school.
