We make room for conversation, collaboration and real-world learning. We create opportunities for young people to connect face to face, share perspectives and grow through supportive relationships.
All programmes are context specific and bespoke to the needs identified. This approach guides impact evaluation. What was the starting point? Where did the programme take its participants? Both seminar contributions, observations of subsequent sessions, academic outcomes and reports from school leaders form the basis of student accreditation.
Quantitative findings are yet to be garnered, however, my last cohort baked me blueberry muffins - suggesting a high satisfaction rate, as well as a few candidates securing tutoring role to fund their places at university.
About Me
Alex Randle - Founder
Across all of my roles; as Teacher, Researcher at Oxford University, Curriculum Consultant and Schools Partnerships Programme Manager at Habs Elstree Schools; I saw the same thing:
Young people love to learn when someone close to them in age and experience takes the time to listen, explain and encourage.
I founded Shared Chapters to make that kind of mentoring practical and well prepared. Teaching Together trains older students to support younger learners with confidence, care and purpose.
