Become a partner school

Icon of people.

Partnering your school or university with a UWS School is a great way to inspire global citizenship and awareness among young minds.

Your students will learn about the challenges that children face in an out-of-reach community, develop transferable skills, and have the chance to make a life-changing impact on their UWS Community through fundraising.

Need inspiration for a great fundraiser?

Here are some stories from a few of our current partner schools, sharing what they have done to help teach the unreached.

Bryanston School, UK

Bryanston School's annual charity fundraisers are spectacular. These have included a silent auction, a dog show, a parents lunch, a photography exhibition and concerts.

Over 600 students and staff from Bryanston also organised challenges. These included

Swimming the equivalent distance to crossing the English Channel
Rowing the equivalent distance across the Atlantic Ocean
Climbing the equivalent height of Mount Snowdon, Wales’ highest peak.

Redmaids' High School, UK

Hannah, a Year Eight student at Redmaids’ High School in Bristol, UK cycled from Land’s End to John O’Groats in aid of UWS. She said:

"The final mileage is 971.59 miles in 18 days with a massive 44,170 feet climbed in total (that's a lot of hills!!!). I have almost doubled my fundraising target so I'm now hoping to build a football pitch with a fence at Jong school, Cambodia as well as train four teachers."

Students at Redmaids’ High School have been so inspired by fundraising that many have decided to research topics such as medicine in the developing world and the Khmer Rouge regime as part of their Extended Essays (IB) or Extended Project Qualifications. In addition, a number of students have volunteered with UWS on gap year programmes or after university.
