Awaken Genius Partnership

We are pleased to announce that we have joined in partnership with Awaken Genius.

This organisation promotes the ‘Ubuntu culture’, with its core principle of “I am because we are,” to reduce challenging behaviour in children involves creating an environment that promotes empathy, understanding, and cooperation. By fostering a sense of interconnectedness and shared responsibility within the community, we will encourage positive behaviour and reduce challenging behaviour in vulnerable children by helping them experience feeling calm and safe.

Awaken Genius run a summer programme that take place at our school during the summer holidays and, throughout the year, pupils will also have the opportunity to work with the team through fun and engaging sessions that have a curriculum focus but promote self-confidence, independence, resilience. Last year, Awaken Genius ran after school clubs for our children in Year 5 and 6 and we aim to continue this provision in the coming year. The programme has been instrumental in creating a safe and positive environment for children to express themselves and develop creativity.

‘There is Genius in everyone deep down, but it can only be awakened when you reach for it’
