What is Youth Coaching?

Simply put it is the process of supporting a young person, using dynamc tools and models to identify clear goals, then ascertain where they are in relation to their goal/s, then create some measurable action steps to move even closer to their desired goals. Ultimately it's about supporting them to realise their goals. Youth Coaching is now becoming recognised as one of the most effective ways to support young people.

Coaching increases self-awareness, improves relationships, boosts emotional intelligence and encourages individuals to find their own solutions. The DFES and the National College for School Leadership are producing literature on the evidence of coaching in youth establishments.

““I have experienced the greatest professional joy you could imagine over the last few days as I have worked with, grown with, trusted and honoured the young people of Coundon Court School. The journey we have started together is immeasurable and its ripple effect potentially phenomenal. For our pupils to be able to inspire, coach and support not only each other (peers) but also adults from within the school and outside shows their enormous potential to transform so much within the world. We need to believe in them, we need to let go of our fears and our limiting structures and allow them to dig deep into their hearts to contribute what they are so capable of giving.
This should be a part of all community and school curriculums and needs to be shouted about and shared “

Debbie Morrison OBE, Head Teacher Coundon Court School, Coventry, UK
