Keeping your students on track — co‑designed for your school.
ACTIVATE places trained educational mentors inside your school to build trust with students — the foundation that drives improved behaviour, attitude and attendance.
What is the ACTIVATE program?
ACTIVATE places trained educational mentors inside your school — not as a workshop, not as a one‑off program. Students work with the same educator regularly, in sessions co‑designed around your school's needs.
Built on evidence‑based wellbeing and learning research, ACTIVATE helps students develop the trust, confidence and skills they need to re‑engage with school — so every student feels a sense of achievement, regardless of their starting point.
How it works
Short, focused sessions — 15 to 30 minutes — delivered every week by the same educational mentor. Consistency is the active ingredient: the same educator, the same time, the same commitment, week after week.
Sessions run individually or in small groups depending on what your students need. Trust is built first; behaviour, attitude and attendance follow.
Who it's for
ACTIVATE is designed for the students whose needs sit outside what a busy classroom can realistically meet:
- Falling behind academically — students who need targeted support to catch up.
- Disengaged or lacking motivation — students who have lost their sense of purpose at school.
- Experiencing behavioural challenges — students whose conduct signals something deeper.
- Struggling with confidence or direction — students who have the ability but not the self‑belief.
- Ahead or on track — but underserved — students who need additional stretch and support that can't be provided due to staffing or other constraints.
The outcomes
When students are supported consistently, the metrics your school is already tracking begin to move:
- Trust grows — students build a real relationship with a consistent educator.
- Behaviour improves — fewer incidents, calmer classrooms, better choices.
- Attitude lifts — students arrive ready to learn instead of ready to resist.
- Attendance increases — students show up for their educator, and then for school.
- Student engagement increases — teachers spend less time firefighting, more time teaching
Why it works
Students don't change because of programs. They change because of people they trust. ACTIVATE works because every student has an educator who shows up for them, week after week — and once trust is built, behaviour shifts, attitude follows, and attendance takes care of itself.
What makes ACTIVATE different
- Embedded in your school — our educators work inside your environment, not as outsiders parachuting in.
- Trained educational mentors — qualified educators who specialise in re‑engaging students, not generalist tutors.
- Trust first — relationships are built before anything else is asked of the student.
- Co‑designed with your school — shaped around your students, timetable and wellbeing structures.
