PALS Programme
Our Mission Statement is
“To deliver our PALS Programme in a positive, fun and
assertive environment. Our aim is to encourage our
students through positive and assertive life skills to help
them to achieve their greatest potential in all areas of
their lives whether school, work or at home. It is not
what happens that matters but how we react to what
happens which brings about the result”

The original concept behind the PALS Programme was to
deliver a short term life skills programme to Transition Year
Students in areas of personal development, self-belief and
empowerment. However two years on and PALS has
expanded into several areas including one off workshops
for First Year Students, Exam Year Students and Workshops
supporting Mentors and Leaders, within all levels of
educational establishments including primary, secondary and
third level education. We now deliver PALS to both
students and teachers in some schools.
PALS One to One Coaching
We are delighted with the expansion of the PALS
Programme into the One to One coaching area with
teenagers and young adults, which also includes Career
coaching.
We are so happy to see the awareness and understanding
of our PALS One to One programme growing with parents
and guardians. HQ is receiving several calls a week from
parents enquiring about how PALS may help their
teenagers or young adults.PALS Programme has been
designed to focus on many areas where challenges are
faced.
The programme is adaptable to individuals and groups and
will focus on bringing about positive changes in many areas.
Sometimes a challenge which seems small and insignificant
to an adult can actually be very overwhelming to a 14 or
15 year teenager.
Often the process of taking time out to look at positive
experiences, strengths and attributes, can often help a
teenager focus on all their good skills and in doing so they
feel confident to grow and progress in other areas which
they find more challenging.
Often the very act of taking time out to review our
progress and development can be just the very activity
which is needed to bring about positive changes in our lives.
This one small change can have a very positive knock on
effect and bring about big changes in several areas including
school, social skills and general mental health and well being.
We have seen huge positive results almost immediately
with our one to one clients. The sessions are tailored to the
client and therefore can focus on the core areas of concern.

Many students feel such a positive impact on their day to
day lives that they want to continue maintaining this well
into the future.
Sessions are delivered over 3, 6 or 9 sessions depending on
the needs of the teenager or young adult. The process of
the weekly or fortnightly sessions allows time for the
student to introduce new habits and complete the weekly
action plan.
All in all the overall result is very very positive!
Big congrats to all ou
