“As a student teacher, working with Investing in Children was a very rich learning experience. I was very thankful to be given the opportunity to create and collaborate on projects that were to be used in the participating schools. Not only was working with Investing in Children a great learning experience; more importantly it was amazing to be a part of an organization that reaches and helps so many students across London. To see the impact that Investing in Children has on students across the city made me very proud to be associated with Investing in Children as a student on placement.”
