Improving The Future of Our Younger Generation

Through the delivery of 1 hour interactive group or 1-2-1 workshops, we look at helping the students tackle their exam stress, lack of confidence, self esteem, self belief and the motivational aspects of their development. By working on these areas the students feel confident enough to strive for their goals, whilst understanding how they will get there. As they carry forward their newly learnt skills, they are personally armed with the tools they need to become the person they want to be, rather than the person that they are expected to become.

The Workshops We Offer

• Positive Thinking and Boosting Self Esteem
  
  During this session we look to eliminate negative beliefs and start to get the students to understand they are in control of themselves and their future, despite their personal circumstances. We concentrate on enabling the students to understand they can manage their state of mind at any time, providing practical exercises to use at any time they need to boost their positivity.
• Confidence Building
  
  The students can enjoy a boost in their confidence levels during this session, by concentrating on what they do like about themselves and what they do have to offer. We also tackle the issues of labels and body image; and what implications they can have on people. . Students will be encouraged to discuss exclusion on the grounds of race, age, disability, gender and cultural background, whilst students share their experiences.
• Practical EFT (Tapping)
  
  In this completely practical session, we teach the students how to use Emotional Freedom Techniques (Tapping). We help them to learn how to tap in a fun and memorable way. It is easy and quick to learn and then they have their own secret weapon to use when they are not feeling at their best. Tapping is proven to be 97% effective in helping dissolve stress, tensions and anxiety, as well as balancing personal energy so students stay focused on learning. They can even use the techniques first thing in the morning to ensure they are in an energetic and positive mood for the day, which is a bonus for any classroom.
• De-stressing Your Mind and Body
  
  This offers an introduction to stress, what causes it and ways the students can combat it. We look at tips to stay positive, as well as various practical relaxation and de-stress techniques. All of which they can immediately use to their benefit.
• Good Health and Stress
  
  Student life is exciting. But it can also be very pressured and stressful. A lot has to be achieved in the limited time available. Stress is an ever increasing issue in schools, especially around exam time, so we look to tackle it during this session. We look at ways to avoid burning out, how to effectively relax, and create healthy habits. The session finishes with a practical EFT de -stress exercise, which the students absolutely love to do.
• Challenging Mental Health Problems
  
  With 1 in 10 students each year suffering from mental health problems, this session aims to enable students to understand the various types of mental health issues. They will explore and discuss the impact on young people who are affected by these problems. Most importantly it will empower them to challenge mental health discrimination and the stigma associated with it.
• Bullying
  
  We work with students to identify different forms of bullying, including cyber-bullying, mobile phone bullying and physical and psycho-emotional bullying. Students will be encouraged to discuss exclusion and bullying on the grounds of race, age, disability, gender and cultural background, together with the experiences of those who have been bullied. Other relevant topics discussed will include peer pressure and conflict resolution. We use enjoyable role-plays, talk through creative strategies that could be used in the future. Our aim is to equip them with the skills to handle bullying, where to find help and aid establishing a zero tolerance approach to bullying within your school.
• Recognizing and Preventing Abuse
  
  In this workshop we discuss what the signs of abuse are and the various forms it comes in. The students are challenged to identify what are the suitable boundaries, to ensure that they and the people around them remain safe and respected at all times. By learning about common signs of abuse and what options students have, it can make a huge difference in their lives and aid the development of healthy future relationships.
• Goal Setting
  
  This workshop identifies why we set goals and starts to challenge what the students actually want to achieve in life. We also look at what barriers potentially could stand in their way. The key element here is to get them to think as big and beautiful as possible and then work out how they can achieve them. This is captured in a NLP visualisation exercise, which always gets a fantastic response for the students; leaving them fired up to get out and start living their dreams.
• Setting Your Own Goals
  
  Continuing from the Goal Setting session, we look initially to get all the things the students feel they can’t do out of the way. This then allows us to work on the belief that they can achieve anything they want to, if they want it badly enough. We then jump-start the process with a 30 minute personal goal setting session and leave with an action plan and the motivation to turn their ideal vision into a reality.
• Exam Results Success
  
  This session concentrates on enabling the students to understand they can manage their state of mind, providing practical NLP and EFT exercises to use at any time they need to boost their positivity, confidence and control last minute nerves. After all of their hard work preparing for the exams, why not ensure that they are emotionally ready as well.
• Making the Most of Your Time
  
  School and homework. Activities and chores. Sleeping and eating. So much to fit into a single day! This session looks to develop new habits and tackles how students spend their time. It gets them to take responsibility for what they do and when they do it. We tackle motivational issues, why we put things off and how students can make their life easier through effectively managing their time.
• Team Building
  
  In this session we aim to develop student core competencies in teamwork, leadership and using their own initiative. The practical aspects of this workshop helps to empower the students to demonstrate their skills, build rapport and trust; whilst increasing their confidence levels. It enables them the freedom to decide how they will accomplish their goals and resolve any issues that stand in their way in the process.
• Achieving Positive Outcomes by Communicating Effectively
  
  We concentrate on the various ways that the students can respectfully achieve what they want, whilst identifying how their External Behaviour affects their relationships with everyone around them. They identify that by looking at their listening skills and how they can control their reactions they can negotiate a positive outcomes for themselves. This is reinforced through role play sessions, where they have to use their newly learnt skills to achieve a positive outcome.
• Getting That Dream Job
  
  This session compliments schools ongoing career advice by supporting the students in thinking about their futures. It looks at overcoming limiting beliefs and looks to provide tips to help them nail any interview. We discuss how the students can ensure they look the part and communicate effectively, in order for them to shine against any competition.
• Becoming Your Own Boss
  
  This workshop shows students how they can become their own boss and run a business successfully, avoiding common pitfalls. We discuss the differences between being in employment and owning their own business, as well as the need to be highly motivated and committed before making any decision to act upon it.

What will we do?

Personal development is a lifelong process which comes from both positive and negative experiences, whether they are in the classroom or at home. Teachers are expected to work to their full potential at all times. This is not always possible due to personal circumstances. Teachers, like anyone, encounter experiences that have an impact their emotions and abilities. This, as we know, can have a profound affect on their professional lives as a teacher. As a result they can find it difficult to engage and connect with students and colleagues at work.

It is therefore vital that schools provide the necessary support and resources to help teachers stay at their best; for themselves, the students and the school. As a result DCI works with Schools and Colleges to help support the teachers providing either group Personal Development sessions or 1-2-1 support; to ensure they remain positive and successfully develop throughout their careers.
