Team Up

TEAM UP is an eight-week hands-on social skills program that aims to help young people focus on leadership qualities, emotional intelligence, resilience and communication skills.

It can be delivered at clubs or at school and has evolved from helping disengaged youth to include students with leadership qualities, students who are at risk of falling through the cracks and young people with low self-esteem.

A great example of its benefits came from a state high school that enrolled Grade 8 students to spend Monday mornings participating in whole-of-class sessions to bring them closer together as a unit.

The feedback from the school was that infighting reduced dramatically and the participating students were more inclined to support one another.
