“What Alex does is ensure that there are expectations for these students to achieve and the one-to-one attention they get tells them that they are wonderful. The immediate results, as we have seen in their A-level grades, are incredible. But if you look at what he is doing on a wider social scale, especially after a summer of rioting, which has been blamed on social immobility and lack of opportunity, he is showing these children that there are real chances to succeed out there and that there are others in the community who will help them get there.”
