Mission Statement

At Forming Connections our mission is to empower children, parents, and carers who are struggling with traditional schooling expectations by providing personalised, solution-focused emotional and educational support. 

Using neuroscience-based, relational and solution focused approaches, we aim to create a nurturing, supportive environment that fosters learning, resilience, and wellbeing. 

We believe in a holistic approach that nurtures both the academic and emotional growth of each child, helping them regain confidence and a sense of purpose in their education.

1. Provide Tailored Educational Support: We offer individualised learning solutions that cater to each child's unique needs, helping them overcome barriers to school attendance and fostering a love of learning.
    
2. Promote Wellbeing and Resilience: We prioritise emotional and mental wellbeing by integrating strategies that support both emotional resilience and academic achievement.
    
3. Use Neuroscience-Based Techniques: Our approach is grounded in the latest research in neuroscience, ensuring that our methods are scientifically sound and effective in supporting brain development and learning.
    
4. Build Positive Relationships: Through a relational approach, we aim to build strong, supportive relationships with children, parents, and carers, encouraging trust and collaboration at every stage of the learning journey.
    
5. Empower Parents and Carers: We recognise the crucial role of parents and carers in the learning process. Our services provide resources, guidance, and ongoing support to help families feel equipped and confident in navigating the challenges of school attendance.
    
6. Foster a Holistic Learning Environment: We believe in supporting the whole child—academically, emotionally, and socially—ensuring that each child has the tools they need to thrive both in and out of the classroom.
    

We are here to support children and families through every step of their journey, creating a positive and empowering learning experience that nurtures both growth and wellbeing.
