Unlocking Potential, Releasing Density; this is the motto and purpose of Impact Mentoring Academy (IMA). Launched in 2001, Impact Mentoring Academy is a non‐profit, single gender charter school for middle and high school aged males based out of The Berkeley Institute Cultural & Education Centre. As a registered charity, IMA is able to offer a viable alternative to mainstream education. The current focus is to expand from the current Middle & Senior levels, to open for primary aged young men. IMA is continuing to grow and build on their programmes designed to provide their students with a strong academic foundation, as well as a foundation to be purposeful young men of the community.
