Helping Children
Transition From Primary
to Secondary School

A Creative &
Caring Path

Awaken Genius uses creative, community-focused approaches to support children, especially those who may need extra help, as they move to secondary school.

By encouraging positive relationships and a supportive learning environment, we help children adjust with confidence and ease.

Integration of PYE
Global's Creative Empowerment Model:

Awaken Genius draws inspiration from the Creative Empowerment Model developed by Partners for Youth Empowerment (PYE). This model combines experiential learning, group facilitation, and arts-based practices to foster creativity, emotional intelligence, and community engagement among young people. By integrating these elements, the model supports children's holistic development, enhancing their academic performance, emotional well-being, and ability to form healthy relationships. Through creative expression and collaborative learning environments, children are empowered to thrive both inside and outside the classroom.

Building Community
Families Wellbeing Days

Our Building Community Families Wellbeing Days are held throughout the year, where we incorporate somatic therapy (mind-body connection) and the creative arts to help parents self-regulate, connect deeply with their children, and build stronger bonds with other families. These days focus on fostering emotional wellbeing, promoting healthy family dynamics, and enhancing community ties.

After I came to this event, I felt more empowered and confident since I have low confidence and self-esteem and I'm a domestic violence survivor, so this was really needed after hearing so many stories from people of all ages.

I've been really empowered and embraced and also what I'm realising is the connectivity between members of the community.

Our Online Parental Wellbeing Circles also integrate somatic therapy, offering parents the opportunity to self-regulate and develop the skills to effectively co-regulate with their children and others within their community. These sessions provide practical tools for parents to manage their well-being and nurture positive relationships at home and with others.

Art Curriculum 

Empowered Learning:
A Holistic, Creative, and Therapeutic Approach
to Education

Our Curriculum is aligned with the National Curriculum, but its pedagogy is centred around somatic therapy (mind-body connection), creative arts, movement, collaboration, emotional intelligence, self-regulation, visualisation, and multi-sensory learning. The curriculum highlights life purpose, communal success through personal agency, entrepreneurial thinking, and the development of healthy relationships. By integrating cross-curricular approaches, we teach Maths, English, and Emotional Literacy in ways that resonate with students. This is delivered as a Saturday, after-school, or summer intervention.
