STEM Personal Tuition and Support

Our Work | Programme Initiatives | STEM Personal Tuition and Support

 

Our rich and rigorous STEM curriculum stretches and challenges learners, but promising learners need additionality – more depth, wider knowledge and greater experience of their subject.

By donating to the Platanos Foundation, you make this possible by resourcing weekly personal tuition and personal development support.

Our STEM Stars benefit from personal tuition and 1:1 support by:

  • Enriching their knowledge beyond the curriculum,
  • Boosting their self-esteem and confidence,
  • Raising their further/higher education and career aspirations.

 

HOW IT WORKS

  • Any pupil aged 5 to 18 attending a Platanos Trust school can apply.
  • Pupils submit application forms and attend panel interviews as part of the application process.
  • Successful applicants receive funding for an academic year.
  • Pupils share their progress with donors.
