Studying With The Brain In Mind

Understanding how their brain works helps your students to learn and revise more efficiently.

This is a great workshop to start the year with. Taking good revision habits from the get-go allows students to learn better throughout the year, setting them up for long-term success.

This workshop will teach your students how to get the most out of their brain during revision time. By better understanding how their brain works, your students will be able to use it more efficiently.

We do this by making things very simple and understandable, whilst using lots of practical experiments and videos. However, we still base the workshop on years of cognitive psychology and neuroscience research.

Student Workshops

Performance Under Pressure

Help your students to thrive, even under the pressures of exams and academic life.

Our Performance Under Pressure workshops introduce students to the key skills needed to manage their stress. This allows them to prepare for and produce their best work under the inevitable pressure of academic life that arises whilst meeting deadlines and during the build up to exams, the exam season, interviews, presentations and in sport.

The philosophy behind our workshops is that, once you have acquired the necessary knowledge and skills to succeed at something, you are often required to reproduce them under pressure or stress.

The ability to do this can be taught; we do this using the LEAP model: Language, Emotional control, Attention, Physiology.

Develop your students’ culture of excellence.

Our Mastery Mindset workshops introduce students to the seven key habits of successful people and provide suggestions and ideas on how to acquire them.

The philosophy behind the workshops is that there is no guarantee of success, but by living your life by these habits you put yourself in the best possible position to succeed. It will help reinforce behaviours that will help your students achieve success.

Managing Your Mobile Phone

Avoid letting your students’ phones get in the way of their learning.

Most students nowadays have a smartphone. They are an important part of how we all communicate and find out information, but they are also inherently dangerous to a student’s ability to do well at school.

Smartphone usage can be addictive, cause concentration issues and create excessive stress. Research indicates that those who study in sight of their phone, even if they don’t use it, do 20% worse.

This workshop addresses these questions and will teach your students how to manage their smartphone smartly so that they can focus on their learning and success.

Student Leadership

Make confident leaders of your students with practical values, passion, vision, and people skills.

Our Student Leadership workshops introduce students to the principles of leadership, and then work on the practicalities of what this means in a school.

The workshops cover the four cornerstones of leadership: vision, values, passion and people skills.

Each student then gets the time and opportunity to practice some of the practical skills that are required to lead effectively. This is done through interactive leadership games.
