Welcome to
We’re a personal development and training company helping students unlock their full potential.
We deliver high energy, engaging & authentic assemblies using our proven framework designed to accelerate the personal development of your young people.

Our speeches are especially geared to help coasting students who go through their education journey doing 'just enough to get by' and sometimes struggle to see the value in school.
Aim A Little Higher
Assemblies
Assemblies are one of the ways we try to empower students to become the best versions of themselves.
We remind students of the importance of loving themselves, developing a vision beyond education and how their habits can set them up for both academic and personal success.
What to Expect
Speeches last an hour, including a 10 minute Q&A at the end. Assemblies can be delivered back to back to different year groups for the whole day.
You can expect your students to laugh, reflect and leave with a sense of pride and inspiration to adopt a Growth Mindset and focus on taking the necessary actions to lead to their own personal success.
How we also help
Through dynamic assemblies, hands-on workshops and targeted interventions, we drive measurable uplifts in student attainment and confidence—turning potential into performance at pace.
We support every strand of the Gatsby Benchmarks—from a stable careers programme to meaningful employer encounters—so your school stays ahead of best-practice and Ofsted expectations.
Our programmes are bespoke to your needs, strengthening the attributes Ofsted values most under the Education Inspection Framework and helping you secure—or enhance—your rating.
By clarifying career routes, igniting passion and honing essential skills, we equip young people to stand out in applications, apprenticeships and internships in now and beyond.
Our high-energy sessions foster self-awareness, coping strategies and peer support—so every student can thrive, not just survive.
We tackle stress and anxiety head-on with practical tools and mindset shifts, transforming exam season from a pressure cooker into an opportunity for students to exceed their own expectations.
