FORE Thrive brings professional counselling expertise directly to schools. The programme combines two sustainable pillars: building capacity within existing staff and delivering preventive education to students, parents and the wider school community.
Mental health starts in the classroom.
Capacity building for in-house counsellors
Interactive, skills-based training uses real-world cases and role-plays so counsellors, teachers and designated staff leave equipped and confident.
- Foundations of mental health in educational settings
- CBT and motivational interviewing techniques
- Early identification and intervention
- Substance-use prevention and intervention
- Trauma-informed care
- Crisis intervention and suicide prevention
- Case management and documentation
- Ongoing supervision and professional development
Preventive education and community building
Prevention creates lasting change by giving the whole school community knowledge, confidence and practical ways to respond.
- Student workshops on awareness, stress and healthy coping
- Interactive substance-use prevention through drama, art and peer discussion
- Parent seminars on supporting student mental health
- Teacher training on recognising and responding to concerns
- Peer-support networks and mental-health advocacy groups
Professional development that is recognised
Participants who complete the training receive a certificate of completion and continuing education credits, recognising their professional growth and practical competence.
