Mission Equality CIC Information

The education-to-employment pipeline isn’t working. It trains young people to fit into the systems we already have, so the same inequalities carry on into the world of work and adult life, generation after generation. Mission Equality exists to change that, starting with how we learn. Equality can’t be taught as a topic. It has to be practised: in how young people handle their emotions, how they speak to each other, how they lead, and whether they treat others as equals. Those are our four competencies: emotional management, communication, leadership and achieving equality. Together they form the foundations of a learning-to-leadership pipeline. Every learning provision should start with one question: what is the purpose of education? If the answer is a fairer, equal society, the way young people learn has to reflect that every day. Our frameworks come from practice. Lea Jovy set up and ran Omnis Education Inc for three years, then ran POP Hove, a 12-week pilot written up in our Black Paper. Mission Equality has been a CIC for 4+ years, and everything we've learned is shared freely, including the planet-building game we'd like to build and our online learning model. The mission can’t be achieved by one organisation. It can be achieved when founders who take these ideas and shape them to fit their own communities. There is no single model to copy. Each learning provision that builds these competencies well is part of the change. The resources on Mission Equality are for: • Founders of self-directed and progressive learning provisions • Families and educators interested in how education shapes society and can drive change The free resources are on our website. Founders who want one-to-one support can work with Lea directly at LeaJovy.com.
