What we're working on...

  • Strategic partnerships with schools

    Business Class, our flagship education programme, focuses on long-term sustainable partnerships between business and schools. The programme has been independently evaluated by Cass Business School to demonstrate impact.

    BITC provides a number of mentoring programmes for young people. Mentors with our Mosaic campaign, are paired with young Muslims aged 5 - 25 from deprived backgrounds, at primary and secondary school as well as supporting ex-offenders.

  • Education Leadership Team

    Meet Business in the Community's Education Leadership Team, comprising individuals who represent organisations at the forefront of investment in education.

  • Influencing Policy

    Find out more about current educational policy and what it means for education business engagement.
