Empowering Learning with Forming Connections

CPD, Consultancy and Support

Education is all about connection. We work with teachers, leaders, schools, colleges, and trainee educators to nurture that connection,  offering webinars, INSETs, and consultancy grounded in neuroscience, relational practice, and solution-focused thinking to support wellbeing and growth across the whole community. 

Bespoke Training/workshops

DESIGNED AROUND YOUR SETTING

We can design a training session that fits your team perfectly. 

You choose the session time (60, 90, or 120 minutes or longer, for Inset days), and we’ll shape the session around what matters most to you.

Together, we’ll can shape the training to:

  • Content outcomes: What knowledge do you want your staff to gain?
  • Skill development: What practical strategies or approaches should staff leave ready to use?
  • Wider priorities: How can the training support OFSTED expectations, your school vision and values, or your SIP?
  • Audience focus: Whether it’s whole-school, SLT, or a specific key stage, we’ll adapt the session accordingly.

Share your ideas, priorities, and challenges, and we’ll design a session built specifically for your school’s needs.

Introduction to Neuroscience for Education Learning, Behaviour and Wellbeing Through a Neuroscience Lens (90 mins)


Why Neuroscience Matters in Schools

Every day in schools, staff are asked to respond to learning, behaviour, emotions, relationships, and wellbeing, often all at once.

Neuroscience helps us understand why children (and adults) think, feel, and behave the way they do under pressure, stress, curiosity, challenge, or connection. When educators understand the brain and nervous system, responses shift from “What’s wrong with this child?” to “What does this child need in order to learn and feel safe?”

This 90-minute introductory training translates key neuroscience concepts into clear, accessible, and relevant insights for education, supporting schools to build more attuned, inclusive, and effective learning environments.

Movement, Memory & Focus: Neuroscience for Better Learning 

(60 mins)


Are your pupils struggling to stay engaged after sitting still for too long? Do you sometimes feel like you’re fighting an uphill battle to get attention, memory recall and focus in your classroom — especially after long lessons or lunchtimes? You’re not alone.


Recent research shows that only about one in three teachers describe their pupils as fully engaged in learning with many children reporting only surface-level understanding of subject material in class.

This webinar solves that problem by exploring the science behind movement and memory — and gives you practical, ready-to-use strategies that make pupils more attentive, confident and ready to learn.
