We started with iheart in year 6 to help with their transitioning into senior school. ignite really helped students when they were feeling stressed or anxious about their results, it really helped.

What I liked about ignite was that it was really interactive. I really like the way you have created it and it just drew me in so much I was like ‘wow, this is so cool’ and I learned a lot of things along with it!
Student, age 11
I felt that the superhero session was extremely helpful because when I was younger I used to watch a lot of superhero movies, every day I used to wish that I was a superhero. But after the session, I found out, that not only am I a superhero, but everyone is a superhero in their own way.
Student, age 10
Before the exam I was feeling really really nervous, I was just thinking many thoughts in my head. But when I remembered a few of the lessons from ignite, it helped me feel calm.
Student, age 9
I would recommend it to other children as it helped me and I’m pretty sure it will help others too. It made some really valid and clear points, which I think are really helpful and useful for your wellbeing.
