Partnership With Loudmouth

Schools increasingly face pressure to provide PSHE and RSHE that is not just compliant, but genuinely meaningful. For many leaders, the challenge is clear: how do we find engaging, age-appropriate sessions that students will actually connect with, especially on sensitive topics? For Grace Academy Foundation and Washwood Heath Multi Academy Trust, this challenge was all too familiar. That is, until they partnered with Loudmouth Education & Training.

The Challenge: Making PSHE Real, Relevant, and Engaging

Schools often struggle to source external provision that ticks all the boxes:

✓ Meets statutory requirements

✓ Is delivered professionally

✓ Adapts to diverse school settings

✓ Engages students meaningfully

✓ Handles sensitive topics with care

As Sophie Chance, Vice Principal at Grace Academy Darlaston, explains: “Engaging and informative sessions are hard to find… it is a challenge to identify organisations who will adapt to school settings, meet statutory guidance, and ensure students enjoy the sessions.”

Saltley Academy faced similar frustrations. Assistant Head Jade Cole recalls: “Our challenge was finding engaging, age-appropriate PSHE resources that truly resonated with our students. Other external providers lacked the depth, sensitivity, or relevance needed to tackle complex topics confidently.” Loudmouth stood out as the solution.

Why Schools Choose Loudmouth?

Both MATs highlighted the same reasons for choosing Loudmouth over other options.

1. A Proven Track Record Grace Academy Darlaston’s long-standing relationship with Loudmouth speaks volumes: “Loudmouth have been coming to GAD for a long time… They are brilliant, even with challenging students.”
2. An Interactive, Creative Approach Rather than delivering standard presentations, Loudmouth uses high-quality drama, discussion, and expert facilitation to help students explore complex issues safely and confidently. Saltley Academy shared: “The blend of drama, discussion, and expert facilitation was exactly what we needed to bring PSHE to life in a meaningful way.”
3. Adaptability and Flexibility Schools value partners who understand their unique context. Loudmouth's teams excel in this: “Loudmouth are flexible and adaptable… their teams are friendly and approachable.” —Grace Academy Darlaston “Rather than a one-size-fits-all presentation, they tailor their sessions to the needs of our learners.” —Saltley Academy

Creating Safe, Supportive Spaces for Students

One of the strongest themes across both reviews is how deeply students engage with Loudmouth’s sessions. Sophie highlights:“Students really enjoy sessions and handle even sensitive topics maturely because it's a safe space to do so.”

Jade echoes this:“Our students gain not just knowledge, but confidence and empathy… It’s education that sticks.” Even the most reserved or challenging students respond positively, something both leaders felt exceeded expectations.

Real Benefits for Learners and Staff

For learners:

• Increased engagement in PSHE/RSHE

• More confidence discussing sensitive issues

For staff:

Saltley Academy adds:“Staff often use Loudmouth’s sessions as a springboard for further classroom discussion.”

Why MATs Should Consider Loudmouth

Both academies enthusiastically recommend Loudmouth to other schools and trusts.

Grace Academy Darlaston: “Loudmouth offer a vast selection of reliable and engaging student performances and workshops that supplement your PSHE/RSE curriculum… We’ve been glad to have them in our academy numerous times over many years.”

Saltley Academy: “Loudmouth is a powerful partner in delivering high-quality PSHE and safeguarding education. Their work is impactful, professional, and deeply valued.”
