Bakari's story

Student

I’ve attended Summit Saturday School for the past three years where I have studied English, Mathematics and science with specialist teachers who have helped further my learning. The impact of their teaching has complimented the work I am learning at my mainstream school and this shows because I am often one of the top in my class when it comes to certain topics.

As well as learning the core subjects Summit has also taught me other skills, such as communication, teamwork, presentations and networking. These are all skills which are transferable and will be useful later on in life.

Through Summit I have been able to take part in workshops linked to the business industry. I have been to various workshops at Citi Roots in Canary Wharf and I was invited to the House of Lords to participate in a Roundtable Meeting to discuss possible changes to the stop and search law. I would like to thank Mrs Stewart in particular for her continued efforts to develop business links and encourage me to lead by example. I would also like to thank my parents and family members who support me throughout Summit Saturday School. I am also grateful for the help I have received from all the professionals and companies who support Summit Saturday School..
