About Releasing Potential School
Founded in 2001 by Mike King, Releasing Potential helps marginalised young people develop essential life skills through innovative outdoor education. What began with sessions run from a Portsmouth home has evolved into a comprehensive educational organisation, serving vulnerable students across Hampshire and West Sussex.
From these humble beginnings, Releasing Potential has grown into a comprehensive educational organisation. Our success with young people led to the establishment of an Independent School, which offers a range of opportunities from the indoors to the outdoor learning environment.
The Releasing Potential team comprises a diverse group of experienced educators and specialists committed to transforming young lives:
