Bright Education Centre: Students interview

Bright Education Centre was founded in 2006 by a young adult, himself from a Somali refugee background, to support young people of Somali origin to develop their self-esteem and confidence, achieve and enjoy all aspects of school life and be empowered to achieve their aspirations. Classes include maths, English, science, IT and cultural/faith studies.
Bright Education Centre provides services to whole families and, as a result, has strong relationships with them. Its supplementary education programme
has a strong and sustainable contribution by volunteers – as students get older and graduate they often come back as volunteer tutors to help deliver lessons.
