What we do

Alternative Education

We design and operate holistic, alternative education programmes designed to develop pupil mindset and resilience, raise aspirations and drive improved attainment.

These programmes can be school based or operate in communities, working with young people from various schools.

All of our programmes are developed following the 1Up Theory of Change.

Sport, Wellbeing & Personal Development

Combining boxing, martial arts, fitness, wellbeing (yoga, breathwork) sessions with personal development workshops to support young person emotional regulation, consequential thinking and development of mindset and resilience.

Sessions mix active participation in sport and wellbeing activities with bespoke workshops involving group discussions and kinaesthetic learning to engage pupils. All sessions delivered by 1Up Collective coaches and group facilitators.

1 to 1 Coaching / Mentoring

1 to 1 young people sessions delivered by our qualified coaches and mentors, each with 15+ years experience working with the most at risk, vulnerable young people (including SEND, SEMH needs and those involved in criminal/gang activity)

Sessions incorporate a range of approaches that are trauma informed and tailored to the needs of the young person (including NLP, CBT). Can range from ad-hoc to set, longer term programmes.

Staff Training & Development

Delivered by our experienced trainers and practitioners, we offer bespoke packages to support organisations in their work with young people. These can include modules on engaging the most vulnerable young people (incl. those with SENH, SEND needs), delivering effectively 1 on 1, delivering effective group sessions, programme design and impact measurement.

Impact Measurement

We believe in measuring the impact of all interventions to ensure that the desired ourcomes are being achieved and delivery is value for money.

We support the design and implementation of impact measurement approaches including defining impact measurement approach, training programme staff and providing longer term support to embed learnings in programme design.
