Light Up Learning is a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (SCIO) dedicated to helping young people explore their passions and achieve their potential. They offer one-to-one mentoring for high school students in Edinburgh and the Lothians, with partnerships established in various schools since 2015. Their aim is to address issues of unequal access to education and classroom disengagement by creating low-stress, supportive, and playful learning environments for disadvantaged young people.

Light Up Learning follows two guiding principles: that social circumstances shouldn't hinder positive learning experiences, and that every young person deserves fun and relevant learning environments. They practice fairness in education, encourage student-led learning, and provide sustained support throughout a student's time in school. Light Up Learning believes in building a community of learners, where students and mentors support each other and connect with inspiring people and organizations.

Through their method, students take charge of their own learning and receive support from mentors, resources, opportunities, and a network of contacts. With a focus on curiosity, passion, confidence, and self-awareness, Light Up Learning strives to instill lifelong interests in learning and enhance students' future paths
