TRANSITION & SELF PROTECTION COURSES.

"THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE BRILLIANT TRANSITION WORKSHOPS FOR OUR YEAR 6's. I WOULD DEFINITELY RATE YOU A 10/10. THE CHILDREN WERE RAPT THROUGHOUT & FULL OF EXCITEMENT AFTER ABOUT WHAT THEY HAD LEARNT. IT WAS AMAZING TO HEAR THE LOUD, ASSERTIVE VOICES OF EVEN THE QUIETEST CHILDREN DURING THE INDIVIDUAL PRACTICE."

Head Teacher, Holy Trinity School, Marlow

Worries include being bullied: 1 in 4 young people in the UK have been victims of bullying in the past 12 months, with 77% of those being bullied explaining that it negatively impacted their mental health. Ditch the Label

How can we help children be more resilient & better prepared for the transition to Secondary School?
