Who we are

The Regulation Station CIC is all about ‘training the future’, building strength from vulnerability and preparing children and young people, not only to learn and to do well in exams, but to do well in the world and in life.

We aim to address the susceptibility of children and young people to poor social and academic outcomes due to poor mental health; academic and social exclusion and systemic inequities.

The Regulation Station is passionate about the impact early intervention can have on long term life outcomes for children and young people using Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) self-regulation skills training with children and young people, aged 9-14, that are at risk of, or experiencing, social and academic exclusion and mental health challenges.

The aim of the intervention is to increase the likelihood of children and young people achieving positive academic and personal outcomes by offering educational assessment to identify potential underlying learning and developmental difficulties and access to a personalised curriculum.

Our Values
- Take care of yourself and others
- Be accountable for your actions and their impact
- Embrace vulnerability as a source of strength
- If it’s not good enough for you, it’s not good enough for anyone else
- Know what you want to achieve before you begin
- Be aware of your power and use it wisely
- Take time to stop and smell the roses

Our Core Principles
- All behaviour is communication
- Those we work with are doing the best they can and want to improve
- Those we work with need to do better, try harder and be motivated to change
- Those doing the work also need support
