Dean’s Desire to look at education around the world...

“Educating youngsters beyond the grade.”

He’s proved his ethos works in education for UK Students, and now B2L front-man Alan Dean is setting his sights further afield. Over the years, many familiar faces have backed Dean’s approach to learning, whether it’s been World Champion Sports Men or Royalty itself. Dean was given a Royal blessing for his efforts in changing the lives of young people by The Prince of Wales. HRH Prince Charles showed his support when Alan ran his popular ‘Two Can’ Challenge with a group of students in Swanley. “Two Can was a great experience for all of us, it changed the way I looked at myself and thought about my education. Alan was the first person to ever get me properly engaged in school, and I just hope that my daughter gets the same opportunities that I was given when she is at school.” - Former Student, John Law. This year, Alan met John’s daughter and worked with her through the summer holidays to improve her confidence in the classroom. She is making great progress and her parents say that she is a changed girl!
