Connect UP

Staff & Parents Training Programme

What is Connect UP?

Connect UP is a training programme for staff and parents focused on understanding behaviour through the lens of stress, emotion, and values. It provides practical tools to communicate more effectively, reduce tension, and de-escalate challenging situations.

The programme focuses on how language, tone, and body awareness can either escalate or calm situations — and how small shifts can make a big difference.

The challenges it helps solve:

Who it helps:

  • Difficulty de-escalating emotional or challenging behaviour

  • Inconsistent responses to stress and behaviour

  • Breakdown in communication between adults and young people

  • Increased pressure on staff and parents to “manage” behaviour

  • Teachers and school staff

  • Pastoral and wellbeing teams

  • Parents and carers

  • Youth workers and support staff
