How We Present
Our Laddered framework is our central point of reference for how we deliver information and help listeners gain insight on what they want and how to get it. Every single session has the option for follow up resources in the form of newsletters; this way, students, parents and teachers alike can stay informed on topics such as employability, well being and study skills.
With each session presented by professional performers and a technique focusing on stand up comedy, we find that they are in no way boring or like a lecture. Push aims to educate against the backdrop of comedy as we believe learning should not be drab or serious. Live sessions and Webinars are highly flexible and can be tailored to meet a school’s specific needs.

In School Sessions
|
- Sessions are engaging and interactive, allowing for Q&A so listeners can feel fully immersed and obtain all the information they need.
- Each in school session will have 1-4 Presenters, dependent on which session you book, all of whom are professional comedians, actors and presenters. - Sessions can be catered for the school's requirements. This means that they can last for one hour, half a day, a full day, or anything in-between. - In school sessions include a wide range of interactive and educational games including: The Life Jacket Game, The Bucket Game, and The Stepping Stone Game. - When sessions are over 60 minutes, a break will be included so concentration does not wane. - All sessions include an optional PDF worksheet and/or summary of the session content. - All students are given access to Push's monthly newsletter and any other content Push provides after the session. |

Safeguarding
General Safeguarding
All Push presenters have enhanced DBS checks.
We ask the school’s safety officer to be present at all in school sessions and webinars, and always comply with each school's institutional policies.
We obey UK data protection laws and we are part of the ICO – an independent organisation for data protection. We require very little data and if we ever send out personal data it is sent in a password protected email.
Our Webinar Safeguarding Policy
The webinar platform will be kept on a private stream that can only be accessed using both a link and a password.
A randomly generated ID will be used to host the webinars. These will be password-protected, which will be distributed securely and separately before the webinar takes place.
All participants will be monitored throughout and any overly disruptive participants will be removed from the session. The webinar will not be recorded without the participants consent or if not requested by the school.
We encourage schools to inform their students to use their student ID as opposed to their name when joining the webinar and only using their student email address. The student ID and email address of participants will be available only upon request by the school. Push will not keep this for any other purposes.
Screen-sharing will be restricted to the host and panelists. Private chats and content sharing between participants will be disabled.
