Schools
We work with young people to be confident and secure in school.
Emotionally Based Schools Non-Attendance (EBSNA) – Primary, Secondary and Transitions
Emotionally Based Schools Non-Attendance (EBSNA) offers personalised mentoring to 9 to 16-year-olds, to positively challenge and address barriers faced when accessing education. SMASH mentors will work alongside the young person, the home community, and the educational provision to foster solutions that work for the young person.
We have several preventative and proactive projects as part of EBSNA, supporting children and young people aged 9 to 11, and 11 to 16 years.
Transitions for Young People
Transitions for Young People takes a relational, peer-led approach to mentoring, encouraging Year 10 students to mentor Year 6s as they transition from primary into secondary school.
This project aims to reduce the potential nerves and anxiety of Year 6s moving into secondary school, building their resilience to face new challenges. In return, the Year 10s are offered the opportunity of peer-based mentoring, enabling students to take the lead and develop their interpersonal and leadership skills.
This project requires funding. If interested, please get in touch to talk further and find out more.
1-to-1 Wellbeing Mentoring
1-2-1 Wellbeing Mentoring supports children & young people aged 9-16 to build resilience, motivation and self-confidence. Mentoring acts as an early intervention to boost wellbeing and help prevent wellbeing concerns from resurfacing again in the future. Mentoring can take place at school or in the community.
