Expert Support for International Students in the UK

We believe that young people need to move beyond traditional models of education, to open their minds to the real challenges facing their future and to work together across the world to build the solutions we need.

By meeting young people from all around the world, making strong friendships and discussing solutions to the greatest challenges facing humanity, we can empower young people to lead the future with integrity, compassion and positive action.

Our Vision

Young people face existential challenges in a world which is changing beyond recognition. To meet these challenges, it is essential that we work together as a global community.

School Channel exists to create connections between young people across the world, breaking down barriers and building understanding, developing skills which enable action at local, national and international level.

Our Mission

We create collaborative learning opportunities at an advanced level. Our learning focus on SDG 4.7 and Peace Education at the heart of everything we do connects our programmes to global priorities.

By working together on collaborative programmes, our delegates increase their own knowledge, while developing actions which enable them to create real impact on their own communities and across the world.
