schools

Tom and Gareth regularly visit schools to deliver engaging, hands-on mentoring sessions that meet young people in their familiar environment. By working directly within school settings, they create a safe and accessible space where children and young people feel comfortable to participate and open up. This approach allows them to build trust quickly and tailor their support to the needs of each pupil, ensuring that every session is both meaningful and enjoyable.

 

A key part of their school engagement is the use of outdoor learning. Tom and Gareth believe that stepping outside the classroom helps young people develop confidence, resilience, and practical life skills in ways that traditional lessons often cannot. Activities such as team challenges, nature walks, and structured outdoor tasks encourage problem-solving, communication, and self-awareness. These experiences not only strengthen fundamental skills but also give young people the chance to discover new interests and build a sense of achievement.

 

Through these sessions, Tom and Gareth focus on teaching essential skills that support personal growth and wellbeing. Confidence-building exercises, opportunities to practice leadership, and activities that promote teamwork are woven into every visit. By combining their 20 years of collective experience with creative, outdoor-based methods, they help young people develop the tools they need to thrive both inside and outside of school.
