Mentoring young people
Our mentoring service supports primary and secondary aged young people who are neurodivergent, including those with ADHD and autism.
We offer personalised, strengths-based mentoring that helps students build the skills, confidence, and emotional understanding they need to thrive.
What is mentoring?
Mentoring provides young people with a trusted, consistent adult who listens, understands, and supports them to develop practical and emotional skills. Sessions are tailored to each student’s needs and delivered in a supportive, non-judgemental way.
Research shows that effective mentoring can:
Improve emotional regulation and coping strategies
Increase confidence, motivation, and self-esteem
Support positive behaviour and social skills
Improve engagement with learning and school routines
Reduce anxiety and barriers linked to school attendance
For Parents
We work alongside parents to ensure mentoring is meaningful and consistent. Our approach helps young people feel understood, supported, and empowered, while giving parents reassurance that their child’s emotional and developmental needs are being met.
Our mentoring focuses on:
Provides a safe space for their child to talk and reflect
Builds confidence and emotional resilience
Supports wellbeing alongside academic expectations
Encourages positive routines and school engagement
For Schools
We work directly with schools to provide targeted mentoring that complements existing provision. Support can be linked to EHCP outcomes, attendance plans, and wider inclusion strategies.
Schools benefit from mentoring that:
Supports emotional regulation and readiness to learn
Improves engagement and attendance, including EBSNA support
Aligns with SEND and pastoral priorities
Provides clear communication and collaborative working
