Power2 Rediscover was developed following an April 2020 survey and interviews with nearly 600 young people, and was adapted alongside them and their teachers in real time. Drawing on established methods and concepts from Teens and Toddlers, Power2’s new programme provides intensive one-to-one support to young people to help them improve their wellbeing and re-engage in education– recognising that the pandemic has had a major impact on some of the most vulnerable young people.

We are delighted that positive changes to young participants’ mental wellbeing, confidence, aspiration, motivation and relationships are as planned for when we designed the programme. We are also delighted that 95% of teachers think the programme is ‘excellent or good’ and 100% of young participants would recommend it to others.

Power2 has been complimented on an ability to adapt right at the start of the pandemic and meet specific needs quickly, and on our resilience. The teachers who referred young people to Power2 Rediscover told us:

Three blue circles saying 87% of pupils whose wellbeing had been affected since lockdown, 87% of pupils who had shy and withdrawn behaviour, and 75% of pupils who were struggling to re-engage with education had improved by the end of the programme.

We will be publishing a full report of the pilot year of Power2 Rediscover in the autumn.


Uptake for Power2 Rediscover has far exceeded expectations.
