Our Mission
Our mission is to reduce the prevalence of mental illness for our pupils by acknowledging teachers as the most significant influence on our children and making schools and colleges a positive experience for the whole community.
We see an opportunity to drive social transformation, shifting from the sickness model to psychoeducation to empower teachers, pupils, and parents.
Our Purpose
To give every pupil the education experience they want and deserve.

We Empower, We Collaborate, We Connect
