What the charity does
Light Up Learning provides one-to-one mentoring for high school students in Edinburgh and the Lothians. The programme aims to address issues of unequal access to education and disengagement in the classroom by creating low-stress, supportive, and playful learning environments for young people who have experienced disadvantage. We place each student in charge of their own learning and give them the resources, skills, and contacts they need to achieve their potential.

Why there's no Clarity Score yet
The Clarity Score is computed from full financial filing history. Light Up Learning is on the official register but outside the detailed-filing group we currently score (or awaiting its first filings), so we show its official register record instead of a rating. Its score appears automatically once enough filing data exists — never by payment. How scoring works
