Awareness Today

Better Futures Tomorrow

The Transforming Minds programme is based on the belief that that the conversations we have with young people today shape the adults they become tomorrow.

Our progressive workshop programmes for primary and secondary schools are designed to build awareness, confidence and resilience, giving young people the tools they need to navigate relationships, the digital world and real-life situations safely and respectfully.

Rooted in our core approach - Think. Question. Empathise. Stay Safe. Shape the Future - our sessions don’t just tell students what to do. They encourage them to reflect, challenge and understand the impact of their choices on themselves and others.

How our programmes work

Our workshops follow a spiral curriculum, introducing key themes early and revisiting them with increasing depth as pupils grow.

Workshop packages can be tailored to meet the specific requirements of your school. You may wish to book a single workshop for a particular year group or choose a comprehensive package covering all year groups, with themes and content designed to suit each age group appropriately.

· In primary school, we focus on building strong foundations, helping children understand friendships, boundaries, online safety and how to speak up when something doesn’t feel right.

· In secondary school, we develop this further, exploring digital relationships, consent, online behaviour, peer pressure, identity and the real-world consequences of decisions.

Tailored, relevant and impactful

Alongside our student workshops, the programme offers bespoke staff training designed to reflect the real experiences, challenges and context of your school community.

Our sessions equip staff with the confidence, language and practical strategies to respond effectively to issues such as online harm, harmful sexual behaviour, digital relationships and the evolving role of technology, including AI. We focus on building a shared understanding across staff teams, ensuring consistent, informed responses that support both safeguarding and student wellbeing.

By combining up-to-date insight with your school’s context, our training ensures staff feel prepared not just to meet statutory expectations, but to handle real situations with clarity, confidence and care.

Kind Words

  • “Susie delivered sessions to our Year 7 students and their parents last week, focusing on the theme of technology usage, online presence, and the digital world. Both sessions were delivered with expert knowledge at the forefront. Susie was able to establish the perfect balance of information, relatedness, and thorough engagement, tailoring the content to ensure relevance for her audience. Susie clearly has a natural ability to connect with students and parents alike, using her previous personal and professional experiences when delivering these workshops. During our Year 7 workshop, our students were really focused on the language and laws, with all the examples helping to bring things to life. Since these sessions, we’ve had parents contact us, students come forward, and this topic has been a real talking point across the year group! We will definitely be looking to welcome Susie back to our school in the near future.”

    -Mr Main, Assistant head of Year 7- King Norton School for Boys. 

  • “Susie has been working with our students and parents for a few years now. She is absolutely superb in helping our younger students to improve their understanding of both the positives and negatives of using the internet and covers really important topics like grooming and sexting. It is so important that we teach our young people how to stay safe online, both in and outside of school and Susie creates a friendly environment where our students feel able to ask questions. Her parental workshops have given parents and carers a greater awareness of the online world and Susie is always really good at sharing helpful advice and resources with them.”
