Course content
How does it work?
Our online courses are available for children aged 5-7, 8-10 & 11-13. They are made up of 60 minute sessions.
During the school holidays these courses are typically run on consecutive days. During term time they are scheduled once per week on the same day and at the same time.
Each course focuses on one of our core life skills; leadership, resilience, creative problem solving and collaboration, and also helps to develop a growth mindset and confidence.
Our promise
We believe in the quality and impact of our work.
If you decide, after your first session, that our online courses are not a good fit for your child then we will provide a full refund of your total purchase.
Getting to know your child
All our courses are run in small groups. This ensures our Role Model can get to know each child individually.
To help with this, before the course beings, we ask you to answer a few questions about your child and any specific needs they might have.
It will only take a minute or two, and it ensures our Role Model has all the information they need to ensure your child has the best experience possible.

Other notes on the online course:
- Your child will need a quiet space and a computer/laptop/iPad with internet connection
- The sessions will be interactive so they will need to be seen (using the computer camera/webcam) and heard (using the computer microphone or headset)
- They will need a pen/pencil and paper during the sessions
- It’s important the children are relaxed and comfortable; if possible please do help them get set up for the first session and be on hand for any technical difficulties
- Following that, these sessions work best when children are given the independence to complete them alone rather than having other people listening and watching nearby. However please feel free to listen if you would like to!
- The content of the sessions will include discussion, games, watching videos, and sharing thoughts and ideas with the group. The children may at times be required to type using the keyboard or answer verbally
More information will be shared in our pre-course email, which you will receive towards the end of the week before the course starts.
- You will be on a 60minute video call (Zoom) led by one of our Role Models

Our courses follow an education framework developed by teachers, education experts and business leaders. This framework, based on the work of the Partnership for 21st century learning', defines the skills and knowledge that children need to thrive at school, at home and beyond.
Our courses have been written by our Character Education team who are highly qualified educators with over 24 years of teaching experience. Our content emphasises the importance of developing essential key life skills alongside academic attainment, in order to thrive in life.
Our highly experienced team of Role Models are passionate about both education and social & emotional wellbeing. They’re energetic, engaging and curious. They’re adept at combining educational rigour with fun, to create active learning environments that children love. All have been interviewed by our Recruitment Team and are reference and DBS checked.
- Paper and pen/pencil, colours
- If a worksheet is required for use during the session this will be included in your pre-course email (if you are unable to print, plain paper will be fine)
- Headphones (optional)
Yes. However, you will need to pay for a course for each child. We would also encourage children to enter the sessions on separate devices (with headphones or in different spaces), however they can also join using the same device if needed.
Our courses are not designed for those who may be struggling with specific life skills. We believe all children can build on these essential skills in order to reach their full potential. Your child may need a boost in confidence, to strengthen their resilience or they may just need an opportunity to go outside of their comfort zone and challenge themselves by working with new people.
