Black Men Teach CIC
Description
Black Men Teach (BMT) are creating a more representative education system, where Black boys can see themselves reflected in the people who teach and lead them.
BMT support boys with identity development and mentoring, while helping educators build their skills and leadership. So far, they have reached more than 1,000 young people and 650 educators. Demand now extends beyond London, but delivery remains heavily dependent on the founders and a small freelance team.
With The Fore’s funding, BMT will recruit a Programme and Partnerships Manager to support expansion into Birmingham and Manchester. It will help BMT scale their digital resources, grow school and university partnerships and generate earned income, building the foundations for sustainable national growth.
