Jabali offers a free programme of immersive educational activities which support students’ aspirations and attainment and develop key academic and soft skills that promote success at school and beyond. Students begin their journey with their local Primary school, and our support continues into Secondary school and beyond.
Skills, Careers & Life Skills
Focus on building IT skills and ensuring access to the internet. Equip members with computer literacy as a baseline to enhance education and workplace readiness. Encourage members to discover their interests and find their passions. Provide training on CV writing, interviewing, and professional conduct. Facilitate work experience, mentorship programs, and potential exchanges with the right partners.
Education
We believe every child deserves the chance to stay in school and build a better future. Through our Education Support Program, we help children from underserved communities continue their studies by covering school fees, providing essential scholastic materials such as books, pens, and uniforms, and offering consistent day-to-day support.
For many of the children we serve, financial challenges at home put their education at risk without support, some would be forced to miss school or drop out entirely.
Sports
Education is vital but we passionately believe that play is equally important. To have a childhood. Work hard, play hard. This is where sport comes in. Sport is such a powerful tool for learning and development. It can be an outlet for stress and worry, it teaches teamwork and leadership, it builds confidence and self-esteem and it fosters a sense of belonging.
Our plan is to bring more sport into the schools we work with, providing equipment and coaches. Out of term time it is about holiday programs that will enable us to extend our reach and strengthen our community.
