Help a child realise their potential

The Chandran Foundation is committed to building a society where children are defined by their potential, not their circumstance. In our mission to uplift young lives, we take a holistic approach to achievement – where investment in wellbeing is as important as the academic support we provide through our inspiration-focused tutoring. Our programmes support children by instilling confidence while simultaneously helping them adapt to adversity, which in turn unlocks their full potential.

Holistic Approach

Our aim is to provide children with the confidence and resilience they need to bridge the achievement gap. Moreover, for many children facing adversity, academic outcomes will be limited without a wellbeing intervention. By adopting a holistic approach, children have reported reduced stress and anxiety, improved self-esteem and confidence, and an overall improvement in academic performance.

Inspiration-Focused

CF follows a child through their academic journey – matching mentors, practitioners and tutors – with the aim of increasing access and achievement in education alongside providing career insight tailored to each child’s potential. CF’s aim is to inspire a child’s unique path, while nurturing confidence and resilience in their academic journey.

‘Art’ of Wellbeing

Our ‘Art of Building Confidence and Resilience’ programmes support children to develop social skills and adapt to adversity through art. The programme’s group sessions aim to help children communicate their thoughts and feelings through art, which in turn helps them make sense of – and process – their personal experiences. This results in improved connections with their peers, reduced stress and anxiety, and improved self-esteem and confidence.

I’ve noticed that the children have increased in confidence throughout their time with the Chandran Foundation. Attendance can be an issue at school, but I’ve noticed that our attendance on days when we have tutoring has actually increased.’
