Leadership Programme

We do not learn for school, but for life.

• MKYLA is a youth leadership organisation set up to help children and young adults develop the skills and qualities needed to be successful students and citizens.
• Our mission is to create leaders of character and purpose for tomorrow’s world, drawn from those most in need in grassroots communities. We view education as a launchpad for this mission and as a gateway to belonging to an influential peer group who will individually and collectively exert positive influence in society.
• The term leadership relates to the ability to manage self and be mindful of one’s impact on others.
• Our core programme meets on Saturdays and we run workshops, seminars, lectures and experiential activities based on our core principles.
• In practice students are assessed on entry and engaged on our own curriculum. We help students develop habits consistent with the mode of thinking of education as a career.
• Typically, classes are 90 minutes in length and include support in literacy and numeracy, 11+ grammar school prep, drama workshops, communications and others.
