Develop your School's Exam Resilience and Exam Mindset
Mindfulness based Exam Stress Training for Teachers to help your students manage their thinking, stay in control and show their potential
Your students will come to
- Understand how their thinking triggers their reactions
- Choose how best to think in a stressful situation
- Know their own minds
Were your students been overwhelmed by their exam fears last summer?
Were they ...
They deserve to think well at exam time
If you're a Pastoral Lead, Head of Year or Well Being Lead, this is your opportunity to help your students, by sharing Mindfulness based strategies that can help them move from feeling Overwhelmed to being in control of their thinking and their fears
How do you shift your students thinking so they feel well prepared to handle a life that’s even now, showing the affects of The Covid Pandemic?
Help your students get out of their own way and give them strategies to face their fears and keep their thinking under control. Learn what's holding your students' back - and how to fix it.
3 steps to Developing your School's Exam Mindset Plan
You'll be applying my Exam Mindset Framework, combining Thinking Skills, Mindfulness techniques and School based Teamwork.
This Framework will help your students perform their best at exam time, and teach them Mindful Skills for Life.
My Promise to You
- I'll help you feel confident to learn Mindfulness 'Best Practices' and suggest how to share them with your colleagues
- I'll show you how to get your colleagues on board with a 'done for you' training powerpoint
- I believe you know enough to start now. I'll show you what to do
- You'll be part of DEM community where you can ask questions and get support
You don't need to work harder - just to shift your focus. Subject skills alone won't give your students the self-help techniques they need.
With continued Mindful practice and whole-school support, you'll see a change in your anxious exam students. They'll become more confident and self reliant as they learn to use the Mindful techniques you'll be sharing with them.
My Intention is to build your students' exam resilience
In the process you'll create a Mindful School Exam Strategy and a 'Study Skills Success' Course
I've been using Meditation recordings and Mindfulness in cell workbooks at a C Category HMP prison for 3 years. In a challenging place, they're helping prisoners to manage their thinking and find a place of ease. Governors and Education Leaders tell me they are making a difference.
"It is so refreshing to find a course which is easy to follow, simple to engage with and complete, and which gives some excellent hints and tips on how relatively small changes can help to develop a much more positive, relaxed and stress-free perspective on an individual's life and approach to everyday activities. The language used is appropriate and easy to understand for students and staff alike, and the content encourages users to not only consider personal circumstances, but also how to develop and improve senses and feelings with simple everyday activities and techniques."
Jugjit Chima
Head of Training, The Exams Office
"We used your material during our Curriculum Enrichment Week over half term with our Year 9 and 10. It went down really well. I've been reading out your Meditation scripts in our Drama Lessons. We've started used Mindfulness in our school assemblies and we're starting a Mindfulness Club next term"

Assistant Head of 6th Form, County Upper School, Bury, UK
"The intent of courses developed in this style was to advance a resident’s knowledge through information, practical exercises and questions, using learning and reflection to help the resident plan for making positive changes in their future. They have been approved by our Quality Team and showcased in other establishments due to their excellence. Courses are often requested by Prison Offender Managers in order for a resident to progress on their sentence"

“How much does Developing the Exam Mindset Cost?”
Many Schools feel ill-equipped to promote Mindfulness.
They feel they need Expert Training. Which delays their start.
Waiting for someone else to teach you many of the things you already know is costly. Not just in time, but in preparing your young people to shine.
I want you to take control and to feel Good Enough to start planning your Mindfulness approach to Exams from Day 1.
No waiting for expensive Expert Training (whilst specific standardised programmes are admirable – they hold up your freedom to Get Going Now).
This course gives you confidence to share Mindfulness with your students from the beginning. You are Good Enough to Start Now!
Through 6 weekly webinars I’ll encourage, suggest, direct and support you through the step by step online course – so you can help your students manage their overwhelm in each future exam series.
When this course comes online after the Beta Launch it will be £997 (or more) but as this is the Introductory Launch, it’s just £479.
I may not include the live webinars in future Launches.
