“
In the modern world, life is so often a battleground that many people feel ill-
equipped to tackle. Many of the greatest lessons that we learn in life come the
hard way, through failure, through risk, through never giving up. If BecomingX
Education can help young people learn these lessons, about endeavour,
about courage, kindness and tenacity, then we are doing something we can
all be proud of. We want to demystify success and help young people be fully
equipped to succeed. After all, life isn’t just some giant competition, it’s a
journey of discovery and is meant to be lived with hope, aspiration and wonder.

The X-model
BecomingX Education provides a library of lessons, assemblies
and discussions to help educators deliver world-class personal
development experiences. Our content focuses on equipping
young people with the skills, knowledge, attitudes and relationships
needed to succeed. Combining deep subject expertise, first-hand
research and the latest pedagogy and neuroscience, we aim to
help educators to engage students from the outset. All of our
lessons are presented by Bear Grylls, feature filmed insights from
some the world’s most inspiring and iconic people and provide
practical real-world activities.
Our education library is based on the ‘X model’, our evidence-
based framework which identifies the personal attributes we
typically see in high performers. The X model is the foundation
© Copyright 2021 BecomingX. All rights reserved
of all of our education content and provides a consistent and
evidence-based approach to learning, with age-specific lessons
for each element.
We designed BecomingX Education to be as flexible as possible.
Our lessons have no prerequisites, allowing educators to teach
whatever will be of greatest benefit to their students. With slides,
lesson plans and resources ready to go, they can focus on what
really matters. Helping their students to realise their potential.
