SchoolCycle

SchoolCycle is a platform created by Bute House to identify used furniture, resources equipment or books in donor schools and match it to partner state schools.

Financial resources saved by partner schools can be devoted to other valuable purchases.

The programme is in a trial phase and we aim to roll out the programme after extensive testing.

Aims

The Explore programme is our big tent of activities, programmes and partnerships with local schools. Bute House Explore reaches out to all primary schools in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham and beyond with programmes and activities to enrich learning across the curriculum and beyond. We give a space to children for their personal growth and learning through creative experiences and enhanced learning.

All the Bute House staff team are involved in delivering Explore. Staff members give up time to
commit their expertise and talent to creating the best experiences for the children who participate.

SchoolCycle is our most technical programme, aiming to leverage our technical expertise and contacts to efficiently and effectively transfer resources from  schools with unwanted resources to those schools in need. 

Background

As part of our established and developed Explore programme, we are constantly seeking new ways to engage with our local schools, using resources and expertise we can uniquely provide. Based on feedback, discussions and requests with the Senior Leadership Teams of our local schools, we developed this programme to address the mismatch between resource surplus and resource need.

Resources

Specialist teachers and administrative staff give their time and expertise to design, deliver and review this programme.
