Life Skills and Career Coaching for Teens: A Practical Manual for Supporting School Engagement, Aspirations and Success in Young People Aged 11-18, Paperback/Nikki Giant

Description Setting out a year-long curriculum based programme for education and youth professionals, this book provides a challenging and engaging workshop-based approach to developing school engagement and ambitions in young people aged 11-18. The programme, which is informed by CBT, helps professionals to understand barriers to young people's school engagement and learning. It outlines a case for a practical, well-rounded curriculum that readies students for life post-education through eight core themes, including 'believing in me', 'money matters' and 'business basics'. The second part of the book is a photocopiable manual for use in classroom settings, making this an essential, hands-on manual for nurturing young people's life skills. About the Author Nikki Giant specialises in supporting schools and youth organisations to promote girls' rights and is the previous founder of two social enterprises: Full Circle Education, which aimed to support schools to promote youth wellbeing, and Girls Circle, a non-profit supporting girls and young women across Wales.
