BELIEF PROGRAMMES

Belief programmes are intervention sessions lasting a minimum of one term, for groups of students or targeted individuals who may be lacking in self esteem, resilience and/or confidence or have moderate behavioural issues.

During these sessions NEST try to instil REAL (Resilience and emotional well being, Educational attainment, Aspiration/broadening horizons and Life skills) as well as focussing on military ethos and values such as integrity, pride and discipline.

NEST has delivered Belief programmes in schools (e.g. Brunton First School, Gosforth) and in Pupil Referral Units (e.g. Beacon Centre, South Shields) and other small groups. NEST does this through the use of team building activities, problem solving and group discussion around the issues that arise, using transform coaching throughout.

NEST tries to instil its SOP's or code of conduct which other partners have adopted during their sessions, creating a very joined up approach to tackling issues with these students. The Belief programme involves weekly updates to key teaching staff and can also involve communication with parents.

Belief programmes can be delivered within the school daily timetable (sometimes covering PPA) or as other school sessions. Programme content and delivery options are flexible and can be bespoke to student and setting needs.

The children at St Aloysius fully benefit from North East Skills Training- developing confidence, resilience and team work. Alongside this they build up life skills in a fun and creative way. Through teaching our children the skills needed for First Aid and Navigation we know we are preparing our children well for the future. Mr Vince's flexible and professional approach to meeting the needs of our children add to the success of the programme he has to offer.
