Engagement through Practical Skills
Students gain confidence and motivation through real world skills.
Led by Dan Johnson, an experienced teacher, SpokeUP provides bespoke alternative provision that compliments school priorities. Our work supports engagement, reduces exclusions and creates a positive pathway for students.
We use bicycle maintenance as a hands-on alternative provision to engage, mentor and support young people who struggle in traditional settings.
Students gain confidence and motivation through real world skills.
Each session includes mentoring and space for students to talk, reflect and grow.
Our approach creates a safe environment for young people to explore challenge.
The skills extend beyond bikes, improving attendance, behaviour and outlook.
By using bike maintenance as a tool we help students develop resilience, transferable skills and a renewed commitment to learning.
