⸺ Course Enquiry

Dedicated to building the strong foundations your child needs to boost their grades and reach their potential, this course covers everything from coping with overwhelm and revision to harnessing their feelings towards school and learning.

The Building Foundations programme enables us to work with you and your child to gain a greater understanding of their emotions, their outlook on learning and how these can impact their success in the classroom and exam hall.

This course covers both parent and learner coaching, explore in the tabs below.

You will learn how to clearly establish your child’s strengths and weaknesses in each subject module they are studying to effectively plan their next course of action and consequently increase their chance of success through a more structured and targeted approach to learning.

You will learn how to help your child organise information most efficiently and how their brain is designed to best take it all in. This will allow your child to retain and recall information more easily in school and for exams, making it less frustrating and stressful for them.

You will learn how to help your child group information in a way that makes retention faster, easier and much more likely. This skill is one that your child will be able to use across all subjects and is, therefore, an invaluable study and revision technique.

Student & Parent Coaching Call

To ensure progress remains on track, yourself and your child will also receive a coaching call with an experienced Performance Learning coach tailored to their needs, which will take them through the skills you and your child learnt during your seminar and how you can implement them at home.

Weekly Email Updates

Following your seminars, you will receive direct access to a Performance Learning coach via email to provide personalised support and coaching on implementing the skills you have learned while allowing you to ask questions and report progress.

Parent Coaching

In this full-day seminar, we take you through the following:

The psychology of how children approach their learning

Some of the obstacles they face, such as becoming overwhelmed and overloaded with work, as well as stress and strain and how to prevent this healthily.

What really enables a child to do well in a subject, and how can we utilise this information and implement techniques to get the best out of your child?

The morning will be dedicated to the psychology of how students learn so that you will be taught many topics centred around:

  • The two driving forces which act as the filter a student will use to determine their engagement level with a subject
  • The Performance Learning ‘cycle of doom’, which describes the emotional trap students can fall into with subjects they do not enjoy, which can hinder progress, and how to break that pattern
  • The ‘intellect and emotion ratio’ looking at how you can help your child develop a healthy intellectual capability and emotional balance towards their school life
  • We will look at the ‘tipping point’ which unveils the scales of success and failure, what can trigger more failure than success and how to prevent this
  • Lastly, ‘the eight perception levels’ shaping a child’s outlook towards learning and, therefore, their performance and how they can use this to their advantage.

In the afternoon, we will unpack the core Performance Learning skills.

Enabling you to sit with your child and equip them with tools and techniques required to boost grades, enhance their attitudes and behaviours towards learning and begin to create a child-centric, as opposed to a content-driven, approach to education.

Child Coaching

In this full-day seminar, our learning coaches will take your child through:

The psychology of how they approach their learning to get them to reflect on where their positive or negative feelings towards learning stem from

The obstacles they face; getting overwhelmed and overloaded with work, as well as stress and strain and how they can healthily prevent this.

What it takes for them to do well in a subject and how we can utilise this in their school routine with the cooperation of their teachers and support team within their school.
