Franklin Scholars is a brand that believes in the power of people helping people. They specialize in designing and implementing peer-to-peer support programs in schools since 2013. Initially, they focused on peer mentoring to help students transition into secondary school, but they have now expanded their programs to reach people at other stages of their journey.

They have worked in over 80 secondary schools across nine regions of England, providing literacy or numeracy-focused peer-mentoring programs. They have reached over 4,000 young people through their programs. In addition to their school programs, Franklin Scholars also offers the Bundles & Buddies Primary School offering and the Odyssey FS Peer Coaching programs for businesses.

To make their expertise and resources more accessible, they now provide a range of digital and physical tools to help schools and institutions deliver effective peer-mentoring interventions themselves. Franklin Scholars understands the challenges individuals face during transition points and changes in life. They believe that one-to-one support networks are crucial in these moments, regardless of age.

They believe that the solution already exists within schools and workplaces, as there are older mentors who are well-equipped to help others progress in their education or career. If you're looking to establish a peer-mentoring scheme in your school or organization, Franklin Scholars can provide the necessary assistance
