The Connections in Mind Foundation
The Connections in Mind Foundation (CiMF) is a UK-based charity whose mission is to improve educational and well-being outcomes for children, young people and neuro-diverse adults, by partnering with schools, youth projects, individual professionals and other relevant organisations to provide evidence based training and programmes that promote executive function skill development.
PROJECTS & PARTNERSHIPS
CiMF works to increase awareness of executive functions by partnering with schools, youth projects, individual professionals and other relevant organisations to provide evidence based training and programmes that promote executive function skill development.
OUR COACH TRAINING
CiMF is the UK centre for excellence for training executive function coaches.
CiMF regularly hosts events for practitioners and parents. We also share information on our blog, social media feed and podcast.
CiMF trains teachers about executive functions, behaviour and mental health. We support schools to embed executive function skills in the classroom.
After training with CiMF, and learning about the power of goal-setting and the use of empathy rather than discipline, my student slowly but surely began achieving the potential that was always inside of him.
It was not a straightforward journey and we encountered challenges along the way, but there is no doubt that, because of my training, my student’s quality of life drastically improved. Significantly, his school results only got better and better, and he is now at a top-performing student in his year group at a competitive London day school.

What people say about the CiMF
Executive Functioning is key to helping students understand how they function and stay in the learning zone. By sharing and developing key skills they learn how to overcome difficulties, build resilience and value themselves and others within the school and wider community.
