Jade Speaks Up Educational Trust

What do you do when difficult emotions come into the classroom?

The world has become increasingly complex, and the emotional demands on our children have never been greater. When you have the right words to describe what you’re feeling, what you’re experiencing and what impact these are having on you, you have the power to change.

Change starts with the choices we make.

Our programmes give teachers the tools to help primary and intermediate-aged students recognise and manage situations that stem from anxiety, stress and family violence.

We provide a proven framework and practical tools for teachers to help their students express and manage their emotions better, build trust among each other, and make wise choices, enhancing overall classroom dynamics. We are changing the classroom, the students' future and the future of their communities.

We need help to continue this work, and every donation we receive keeps the mahi going. We are a small and passionate team, and your generosity helps us reach another classroom in Aotearoa.
