Trying to find a training programme that actually sticks and delivers measurable change is a real headache, isn't it?

You're a Registered Manager or a provider director. You've seen the "one-day wonder" training sessions that tick a box but change nothing on the frontline. You're still struggling with staff consistency, high turnover and the constant pressure to prove your quality to Ofsted.

You need more than just training. You need a structured, practical system for organisational change in your children's home.

That's why we're not offering a simple training course. We're offering an exclusive Founding Partner opportunity.

We are looking for 2-3 ambitious care homes to join the very first cohort of our 6-Month Pilot Programme. This is your chance to get in at the ground level, work directly with our founder, Ash and be one of the first to implement the UK's only Neuro-Smart, Trauma-Informed framework at a significantly reduced rate.

We'll work with you to embed the frameworks, strengthen your supervision and co-create the measurable, Ofsted-aligned evidence you need to prove your excellence.

▷ Key Takeaways

  • Secure one of 2-3 exclusive Founding Partner spots for our 6-Month Pilot Programme for Care Homes and Semi-Indepedance Homes.
  • A structured, 6-month model for piloting trauma-informed frameworks and driving real organisational change.
  • Strengthen your trauma-informed supervision and accountability with built-in Fidelity Tools and Staff Mirror reflections.
  • We will co-create a powerful, Ofsted-aligned evaluation report to prove your quality and consistency.
  • Receive a 40%+ saving on the full programme cost as a Founding Partner.

Why a "Founding Partner" Pilot is a Smarter Choice

Standard, off-the-shelf training fails because it's not designed for your team, your children or your specific challenges.

As a Founding Partner, you don't just "get" the training; you get a bespoke, high-support partnership. This approach works because it's:

  • Led by an Expert with Lived Experience: You get to work directly with our founder, Ash. Her 5 years of frontline experience and her personal lived experience in the care system mean our frameworks are built for the real world.
  • A Genuine Partnership: We are as invested in your success as you are. We need your feedback and data to build our national case studies. In return, you get an unparalleled level of support and a "Founding Partner" rate.
  • Focused on "Sticking": This isn't a "train and run" model. This is a 6-month journey of improving staff retention through training because it focuses on embedding, coaching and reflection, making the practice stick.

What the 6-Month Programme Involves

This is a structured, practical pipeline for measuring improvement across your care services. We stay with you for the full six months to ensure the framework becomes your culture.

Month 2: Personalisation & Audit

  • This is where the magic happens. We deliver your bespoke Personalised SPARK-Incorporated Care Plans for up to 4 children (more YP's can be added).
  • We conduct the Environmental Audit to assess how your physical and sensory spaces are supporting (or hindering) regulation.

Months 3-4: Embedding & Reflection

  • We begin the monthly coaching and reflection cycle.
  • We introduce the SPARK Quick-Fire Questions to use in handovers and team meetings.
  • We conduct a Micro Review of the care plans and audit progress.

Month 5: Deepening Practice & Crisis Tools

  • We conduct the first full Quarterly Review to track progress.
  • We deliver the Staff Mirror Tool & Incident Reflection Sheet to embed reflective practice.
  • Optional: We can introduce the SWIFT+R™ Crisis Harness training (as an add-on) to align your crisis response.

Month 6: Evaluation & Ofsted-Ready Evidence

  • We conduct a full evaluation of staff confidence, incident trends and fidelity.
  • We deliver your final Ofsted-Aligned Evaluation Summary - a powerful, data-rich report that proves your journey of improvement.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: What is the 6-Month Pilot Programme for Care Homes?
A: It's a structured, high-support "Founding Partner" opportunity for 2-3 homes. It’s designed to embed our Neuro-Smart, trauma-informed frameworks (like SPARK Care™), strengthen your supervision and track measurable change over six months.

Q: How are outcomes measured?
A: We measure them together. We use Fidelity Tools to track implementation, audit supervision quality and use pre- and post-pilot data to track staff confidence, wellbeing and incident trends. This is all compiled in your final Ofsted-Aligned Evaluation Report.

Q: Who is the programme for?
A: It's for ambitious Registered Managers, Deputies and multi-site providers who are serious about piloting trauma-informed frameworks and want to build a culture of measurable, consistent quality.

Q: Can multi-site providers join?
A: Yes. A multi-site provider is an ideal partner. You can pilot the framework in one "test" home or a small cluster, with a view to a wider, scalable rollout.

Barriers to ND Adaptation in Care Staff: Why It Happens and How to Fix It
You can have the best care plans in the file, but they are useless if your floor staff refuse to execute them.

Predictable Routines to Reduce ND Meltdowns in Residential Care
Managing a home where escalations are the norm is unsustainable for your staff and traumatic for the children. You deal with sudden aggression, property damage, and the constant, exhausting anticipation of the next crisis. This isn't just "challenging behavior" - it's a physiological response to a world that feels chaotic and unsafe. You need more than patience; you need a structural framework that stabilizes the environment before a meltdown even begins.
