We are excited to announce that we are now working with GCSE Boost, a local Bristol business that will be working with local schools, students and businesses.
What is GCSE Boost
GCSE boost is a 2 day careers/live event, taking place at the world renowned Aerospace Museum in Bristol, on the 13th and 14th of March 2025. The event is for 2,000 year 11 students from Bristol and the surrounding areas. It will engage and inspire students, focusing on topics such as: Well-being, Mental Health, Diet and Nutrition, Motivation and Aspirations and GCSE exam techniques.
These topics will be covered by four, live, keynote speakers who will present Ted-x style talks. This will all take place underneath the world-famous Concorde as an inspirational visual aid. The goal is simple; to allow Year 11 students to feel better as they go into exam season.

About the GCSE Boost Founder
The founder behind GCSE Boost Junior Saunders is passionate about the project and from the first meeting, we were ready to join Junior on this journey.
Junior spent most of his life in foster care and didn’t have a strong educational experience. Junior struggled with ADHD and dyslexia while experiencing many setbacks as a child. Junior wanted that sense of achievement, despite all the setbacks that he faced. As Junior entered year 11, no schools in Bristol would accept him due to his educational journey except for one, Lockleaze School. It’s Junior’s journey that drives his passion for the GCSE Boost project and you can read more about Junior’s journey on the GCSE Boost website when it launches later this year.
Junior now runs Junior Inspiring Education a student personal development service for secondary school students on behalf of schools, businesses and organisations that teach students about personal development into careers and apprenticeships throughout the UK.
Our collaboration with GCSE Boost
Junior approached us looking for a professional website to promote his vision for the project. Some branding had already been created a brochure and video were already well underway which was fantastic to see. The missing piece of the puzzle was a website that could promote the event in a responsive web friendly format.
After a couple of initial meetings with Junior, we decided to sponsor the majority of the costs of the website as our way of supporting the project. When the website launches later this year we will be hosting the website and supporting Junior where we can to make sure the website is a success and the project gains the momentum it deserves.
Working with Schools in Bristol
We have been working with schools on various web design projects for many years and this was another opportunity to work with the schools, students, and businesses in our local community. Education is a vital part of our children’s lives and wherever possible if we can support local schools with any school web design or school web hosting requirements we always do our best to get involved.
