SUMMARY:Outduction - preparing students for life after school
DESCRIPTION:🏷️ From £175\n🎧 Deputies\, pastoral leads\, boarding staff\n📍 Online \n\nCourse outline: \nAs educators and pastoral staff\, we invest significant time and care in inducting students into our schools. Yet when it comes time for them to leave\, are we providing the same level of structured support to prepare them? \nThis seminar is designed to help boarding and academic staff understand the unique challenges and concerns faced by senior students as they prepare to leave the familiar environment of school and enter the next stage of their lives. By exploring these transitional needs\, participants will begin to develop a practical\, tailored ‘outduction’ programme – ensuring that students are equipped with the emotional resilience\, life skills\, and awareness necessary to thrive beyond the school gates. \nThrough interactive sessions\, group discussions\, and the application of key psychological frameworks\, the day will empower schools to create meaningful\, student-centred strategies that support the long-term wellbeing and success of leavers. \nKey topics: \n\nUnderstanding post-school needs: exploring the real-life challenges students may face\, including time management\, relationships\, finances\, and independence\nThe six human needs model: understanding student behaviours through a psychological lens and identifying how schools can provide stability during transition\nCreating an ‘outduction’ programme: collaborative group work to begin designing a bespoke plan tailored to your school’s context and student cohort\nSharing and refining ideas: a final session to consolidate and exchange ideas across groups\, producing actionable plans to take away.\n\nLearning outcomes: \n\nDeeper insight into the emotional and practical needs of senior students leaving school\nGreater understanding of the soft skills required to support student independence and wellbeing\nA draft\, school-specific ‘outduction’ programme ready for further development and implementation.\n\nBOOK NOW \n\nSpeaker: \nMark Robinson\, BSA Senior Consultant \nMark has a Product Design Degree from Brunel University and a PGCE.
