SPECIALIST ENGAGEMENT WORK
BUILDING THE FOUNDATIONS FOR LEARNING
For some young people, the first step is not academic learning — it is rebuilding trust, connection and confidence.
Our specialist engagement and re-engagement work is relational, strengths-based and solution-focused, helping young people gradually reconnect with education and recognise what they are capable of.

Support can include:
💬 RELATIONAL & SOLUTION-FOCUSED SUPPORT
Recognising strengths
Setting achievable goals
Building confidence and motivation
Developing self-awareness
Managing challenges and setbacks
Developing healthy routines
Recognising and celebrating progress
🌱 MINDFULNESS & REGULATION
Emotional regulation strategies
Mindfulness
Grounding
Breathing
Sensory activities
Reflection and self-awareness
🚶 MOVEMENT & SOMATIC APPROACHES
Movement breaks
Walking and talking
Breathwork
Grounding
Dance and creative movement
Outdoor activity
Fitness and physical activity
Where needed, engagement and re-engagement work can begin at home or within the community, gradually supporting the learner towards wider participation in education.
