Student Workbooks
Interactive Sessions
Our interactive session are what ties our programmes together. These session will run on the board each week, allowing facilitators to deliver session with ease and ensuring that structured learning is always being complete. These exciting interactive sessions are packed full of meaningful games and tasks, a wealth of activities that are designed to support students as they discover more about themselves and a series of tools that help keep the learning fun and, when needed, differentiated for learners with a lower ability.
Monitoring and Tracking
To make learning even more impactful, each of our programmes comes with a suite of documents that help schools prepare, setup and monitor progress of each individual student that takes part. We provide referral forms, parental consent letters, session evaluation forms, questionnaires and a tracking system that allows staff to see, at a glance, the progress made by each student over the course of the programme. These documents can be kept on the students records, to provide a comprehensive breakdown of the support that each students has received through one of our programmes.
Facilitator Handbook
Our facilitator handbook makes delivering our programmes a breeze. Each session is broken down into a comprehensive session plan, which outlines leaning objectives, potential barriers to learning, links to academia, AFL strategies and answers to games. To make life even easier for our facilitators, we have also included an activity summary for each session, so that an overview can easily be obtained and used to run a fantastic session of wellbeing support. This facilitator handbook will help guide new facilitators as they deliver the programme, allowing them to focus on supporting the students.
