Wellbeing and mental health challenges are increasing globally. Educators and parents are struggling with both increased behavioral issues and anxiety in school and at home. In the age of AI, our future generations need more than ever to learn emotional intelligence and other life skills that help them become their best self, and they need to develop a deep sense of belonging to their community. The current programs available create additional work for over-burdened teachers, can't be seamlessly integrated into the curriculum, and focus on intervention rather than personal development and prevention.
Our program offers true flexibility for schools where teachers can access materials by year group either choosing to follow a supplied and recommended structure or dip in and out of the vast bank of resources to support their teaching. Sympathetic to the increased burden of the teaching community, the program and materials have all be clinician-approved and teacher-endorsed. There is no additional work needed from the teaching community, all materials are ready to go: the videos are press and play, and the activities can simply be printed off and used without any further work required from teachers.
It was also critical to us that we were able to support the growing needs of the families within the school community and therefore, our complementary Happy Confident Club, offers parents access to a wide array of family resources that will support their child's development.
4 modular/flexible pillars accessible by teachers through an online hub:
1. Social and Emotional Learning
The FEELIT program teaches pupils aged 3-14, 100 feelings across 800+ activities & engaging videos. It creates an inclusive culture teaching essential social & emotional skills, including self-regulation, conflict resolution, communication and empathy, helping them improve behavior & develop positive relationships.
2. Life Skills
10 skills including Self Awareness, Optimism, Mindset, Mindfulness, Compassion and Resilience. A series of videos and activities using testimonials from children and teaching the neuroscience needed to thrive.
3. Gratitude & Reflection
Daily Journals to help children become more optimistic providing space to reflect & decompress. Pupils practice gratitude, through '3 good things', reflect on their feelings, and answer 2 daily questions to develop self-awareness.
4. Mindfulness & Connection
Affirmations, Conversations & Meditations created to arm pupils with tools for life.
The Happy Confident Club (launched April 2025)
The first platform that transforms parents into children's life coaches helping them support their child's challenges at home, learning together about mindfulness, resilience, growth mindset, and emotional intelligence, It works hand-in-hand with the Happy Confident Schools Program, by providing a complementary curriculum that will help children to become the best versions of themselves both at home, and in school.
Our life skills program was initially trialled in schools from 2018 to 2020 as a 1 hour/week program over 10 weeks. The impact on children was really positive but the expansion was hampered by the fact that most schools didn’t have the time to find 1h/week and then by COVID.
In 2020, we developed gratitude journals and educational card games to help children develop positive daily habits in schools and at home. We have since reached hundreds of schools and hundreds of thousands of families, selling more than 300,000 journals to date.
In 2023, we overhauled the school program by developing bite-sized videos and activities that only require interventions of 5 to 10min every day, so that it can fit within any curriculum and school day. We launched the FEELIT program and Happy Confident Me TV as a video program to ensure children could access these at school & at home. We successfully rolled-out the program and resources in the UK to independent, SEN and state-funded schools and this is where the school program started being used by dozens of schools.
2024 and 2025 saw expansion into Europe, the Middle East the US and the Far East with large school groups such as GEMS and ISP getting on board. We'e now reaching more than 100 schools with our full school program, and thousands of schools and hundreds of thousands of families with our resources.
Twice a year we review the program usage and efficacy updating and upgrading the program to continually improve on the user experience based on real-world feedback.
As explained above, in 2023, we converted the challenges of schools and teachers not having enough time to fit in mental wellness into the curriculum into an opportunity, by converting the schools program into a 5 to 10 minute per day intervention that require no teacher training. This was a key innovation as making it a daily intervention that integrates seamlessly significantly improved the impact of the program.
We included impact surveys in 2024 and the outcomes were beyond any expectations even in the most well run schools in the world that already had a lot of wellbeing interventions. The results showed that on average, after just two months of using the program, more than 92% of children feel safer, 90% feel happier, 87% feel more able to regulate their feelings, 84% feel kinder and 78% feel more confident.
The Happy Confident Club (April 2025) was the key innovation over the past 6 months, as we believe that children need to feel a deeper sense of self and belonging in all settings to help them become their best self. So the connection between school and home and parental engagement is key to our mission and the launch of the HC Club is the final part of the puzzle that enables children to have a voice everywhere and to have the language to express their feelings and needs and to be supported.
