The focus on teenagers to achieve academically has led to many life skills being sidelined, and yet the step from adolescence to adulthood is fraught with unknown situations and even more competition than ever.
These practical courses have been developed in response to the schools with which we work and are tried and tested by very exacting clients – the pupils themselves!
Most courses are booked by schools and colleges, but if you see something here which your school isn't delivering, please call us - we are happy to teach any of these courses to groups outside the educational environment.
For any student feeling the pressure of exams, this practical course teaches healthy sleep habits to minimise stress and maximise success, as well as many other anti-stress techniques.
