PEER is a neighbourhood space for art and culture. Over the past twenty-three years we have evolved from the ground up, and are now deeply embedded in the socially, culturally, and economically diverse area of Hoxton, East London. Located in a converted shopfront in Arden Estate on Hoxton Street, our street facing gallery hosts a programme of new commissions by artists presented as solo exhibitions, group exhibitions, research projects and events. PEER overlooks and maintains Khadija’s Garden and Chris Ofili’s Black Hands pedestal clock. To support and encourage dialogue between visitors, artists and their work, a programme of event-based activity takes place throughout each exhibition, including talks, performances and workshops. Central to all our activities is PEER Ambassadors, a two-part programme for people aged 17 – 25 that offers paid work-experience at PEER, alongside a free, collaborative, and creative programme working closely with an artist on a new public art commission as part of PEER Notices. PEER provides an experimental space for artists to explore new directions in their work. Previous and recent artist commissions include, Mike Nelson, Bob & Roberta Smith, Danh Vō, Fiona Banner, Jonathan Baldock & Emma Hart, Jimmy Robert, Jadé Fadojutimi and Lubna Chowdhary, among others. We programme sustainable co-commissions with national and international partners, as well as collaborate with residents, community organisers, educators, schools, libraries and charities. Recent partnerships include, Hoxton Trust, Hackney Circle, Shoreditch Library and Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art.

Seven Kings School

Ilford

We provide a broad and balanced curriculum that offers all students the opportunity to succeed. We focus on teaching students the skills to be effective learners, and to encourage in them a love of learning that they will keep throughout their life. Many enrichment opportunities add to students' experience and development. The work that takes place in the classroom is the cornerstone of the school's success. A dedicated team of well qualified and skilled teachers and support staff provide outstanding learning and teaching for students and our work as a Teaching School helps to maintain and develop further the quality of the classroom experience. Our students are enthusiastic, motivated and ambitious to succeed and maintain very high standards of behaviour and engagement in their studies. They are encouraged to be reflective and creative in their thinking and to become increasingly independent learners as they progress through the school. Achieving Success Every student will need guidance and encouragement and at Seven Kings we aim to meet individual needs by providing the right level of challenge and support to ensure students reach their full potential. We support students with this by focusing on providing quality teaching, responding to their needs to ensure the right level of stretch and challenge. There are a range of intervention and support programmes for those students who need extra help, such as those with learning difficulties. We are very proud of the inclusive nature of our school and aim to personalise learning and teaching so that every student is able to succeed. There is a structured home learning timetable and all students are given a planner to help them organise their time and workload. Parents/carers are asked to check this on a weekly basis. There are home learning support clubs at lunchtimes and after school to help students if they need it. The school also has Learning Mentors to support students and mentoring schemes with both staff and student mentors available to support students. Beyond the Classroom There are many opportunities for students to take part in extra curricular activities at Seven Kings. A large number of clubs and activities take place outside lesson times. Staff are committed to providing different opportunities to enrich the lives of Seven Kings' students. Subject based clubs, such as those in Art, Drama, Music, Science, Sport and Technology enhance the curriculum and many trips and visits support classroom learning. We offer a number of residential trips, to places like Paris, Spain, China, outdoor pursuits and a skiing trip to Austria. Students are encouraged to enter competitions and to contribute to the community in different ways. Our peer committees and student leadership programmes help develop leadership skills and provide opportunities for students' views to be heard. There are termly Music concerts and many Drama productions each year which help students develop their performance skills and their self-confidence. The P.E. department run many school teams and have enjoyed considerable success in local competitions.

AAA STAR Driving School was born out of a simple idea: bringing high quality, accessible and affordable driving education to our community. We recognise that each student has an individual approach and pace to learning. Hence we pride ourselves in uniquely tailoring our teaching methods to maximise the students' valuable lesson time, making AAA STAR Driving School one of the best providers in the South West London Area. We invite you to explore our engaging and diverse course schedule, and keep checking our webpage and social spaces for further information and regular updates. OUR STORY. Ganesh learned to drive at the age of 19, passing his driving test on his first attempt. He distinctly remembers a compliment from his assessor that he was one of the safest drivers that he had seen. During his time in Germany, Ganesh also attained a European Driving License and garnered many praises for his driving talent from his instructor. In his early 20s, Ganesh steered his career trajectory towards corporate opportunities and worked his way up to several managerial positions. But one of Ganesh's keen interests has always been to establish his own business. Consequently, after establishing his family life, he channelled his passion for driving and teaching into his career and commenced his endeavour to become a driving instructor. At the beginning of his journey, Ganesh taught at a local driving school for five years, where he developed his expertise and expanded his clientele. The next phase of Ganesh's journey was to establish AAA STAR Driving School, with the support of his spouse and three children (the namesake of the company).

Clean Break

Clean Break uses theatre to keep the subject of women in prison on the cultural radar, helping to reveal the damage caused by the criminal justice system. Through our unique work, we raise difficult questions, inspire debate, and help to effect profound and positive change in the lives of women with experience of the criminal justice system. Since 1979, Clean Break has been the only women’s theatre company of its kind, and we continue to inspire playwrights and captivate audiences with our ground-breaking plays on the complex theme of women and criminalisation. Through theatre workshops and projects in prisons and in the community which build confidence, resilience and wellbeing, we transform the lives of women who have experienced the criminal justice system or who are at risk of entering it due to the challenges they are facing, such as mental health or drug use issues, which place them in circumstances that make interaction with the criminal justice system difficult to avoid. Our Members Programme is available to women aged 18 and above. The Programme offers a range of workshops and performance opportunities led by esteemed female theatre artists, underpinned by comprehensive support. Clean Break’s women-only identity is crucial to our rationale. The treatment of women by the criminal justice system is one of the clearest demonstrations that our society is still unequal and that women are judged by different standards to men. Our vision is of a society where women can realise their full potential, free from criminalisation, and we believe that theatre enables women to challenge their oppression by society in general and by the criminal justice system in particular.
