Krunch School Transition Mentoring

The service supports Year 6 children transitioning to secondary school by promoting emotional health, wellbeing, and school engagement. It targets pupils at risk of disengagement due to issues such as poor friendships, vulnerability to exploitation, unsafe behaviors, family offending history, low self-esteem, or compromised wellbeing. Outcomes include improved recognition of harmful relationships, understanding of healthy relationships, increased self-esteem, and positive school engagement. Sessions involve emotional health questionnaires, therapeutic discussions, confidence-building activities, resilience and emotional literacy development, RSE and safety education, facilitating the young person’s voice, signposting to positive opportunities, and multi-agency communication. Referrals require consent, a confidential school space, and designated school contacts.
