RECONNECT

A DIFFERENT WAY FORWARD

RECONNECT.

A DIFFERENT WAY FORWARD.

Not every young person connects with education in the same way. Sometimes, a different approach can open up new possibilities.

RECONNECT is a personalised, arts-led educational intervention for young people aged 10–16 who are experiencing difficulties engaging with education.

Through artistic expression, practical experiences and individualised support, we create opportunities for young people to rediscover their interests, develop confidence and take positive steps towards their educational future.

12 WEEKS. NEW PERSPECTIVES. NEW POSSIBILITIES.

More Than An Intervention

RECONNECTING YOUNG PEOPLE WITH THEIR POTENTIAL.

For some young people, traditional approaches to education no longer provide the opportunities or experiences they need to engage meaningfully.

RECONNECT offers an alternative starting point.

Using the arts as a foundation, our programme brings together creative projects, practical challenges, personal interests and opportunities for achievement.

From drama, filmmaking and visual arts to storytelling, design and digital media, young people can explore different forms of expression while developing transferable skills.

Our approach recognises that progress looks different for everyone. For one young person, it might mean participating in a collaborative project. For another, it might mean completing something independently, communicating an idea or discovering a new interest.

We don’t expect every young person to follow the same path. We create opportunities for them to discover their own.

The RECONNECT Journey

Who is RECONNECT for?

RECONNECT is designed for young people aged 10–16 who may benefit from a personalised approach to educational engagement.

This may include young people who:

  • Are experiencing difficulties engaging with their current educational setting.
  • Have experienced periods of disrupted education or reduced attendance.
  • Would benefit from opportunities to develop confidence, communication and independence.
  • Have interests or talents that could be explored through arts-led learning.
  • Need a different starting point to help them consider their educational next steps.

Every referral is considered individually to establish whether RECONNECT is an appropriate programme for the young person’s needs and circumstances.

A DIFFERENT APPROACH. A NEW OPPORTUNITY.

Every young person’s educational journey is different. Finding the right opportunity starts with understanding their individual needs, interests and aspirations.

Whether you’re a parent, carer, education professional or local authority representative, we’re here to explore how RECONNECT could support a young person’s next steps.
