Provide students with a research-based goal setting process has helped tens of 1000s of students with self-belief and gives them a proven process that can help students accomplish more than they thought they were capable of achieving.

The activity will be a fun, interactive and challenging workshop based upon the MASSIVE GOALS principle. This can be delivered to either half or whole year groups, tailored to inspire the students that are participating.

Alongside the Massive Goal process itself the workshop will also contain exercises to develop effective memory skills along with practicing techniques to manage stress, raise emotional resilience (emotional state management) and self-esteem within students who are undertaking end of year exams. This workshops will provide students with a simple, fun and interactive techniques to understand what stress is for them and how to manage their feeling and emotions to be more effective.

To allow flexibility for the schools’ timetable and varying year group sizes, schools can take the workshop as either as:
– 2 x 2hrs, 1 x 3hrs, 3 x 1hrs, 4 x 1hrs (Flexible subject to school/college timetabling).

This will be delivered to group sizes (determined by the school) being small groups or up to whole year groups.

Post event, the impact will be reinforced with supporting audio and video resources (worth £100 per student) free to the school.

This workshop will motivate a greater number of students to plan, set and achieve massive goals so raising their aspirations and attainment (to progress to HE). The study and memory skills gained within the workshop will have a long lasting impact on the students’ levels of attainment, and any future exams. Underpinning all of this will be an increase level of confidence and self-esteem from the stress and emotional resilience techniques given. These techniques are what will enable students to aspire and achieve.

Looking to get students to plan, set and achieve massive goals in either academia or personal life. This will also help student raise aspirations to progress to HE.

Schools have reported to us that the biggest “step up” in behaviour, performance and attitude (which one Birmingham school calls the Stretch bounce effect!) is amongst those students who were disengaging, giving up, or who had very low aspirations despite their actual ability. We would be happy to offer references to this effect.

Some of the measured impact that schools have recorded is detailed below in “further information”. Over 18 years of delivering to young adults we have had literally 100s of students achieve way beyond expectations when using our Goal setting, study skills and stress management techniques. These include:
• A Worcestershire sixth former who got mentored by Barack Obama
• Amazon no1 authors
• British and European sporting champions
• World leading musicians
• Charity fund raising record breakers
• One student who went from a young offenders institute to award winning engineer
• Entrepreneurs including millionaires…even one WWF American wrestling star
