About this course
The concept of ‘Marginal Gains’ is that numerous small actions and 1% improvements, when added together, lead to a significant increase in performance. It’s a method which focuses on the power of incremental change; easily achievable wins, rather than huge, daunting leaps of innovation or hard work.
What’s more, the methodology has been repeatedly proven. From elite sport to big business, marginal gains has been accepted as a powerful tool for improvement. In this course, Joe Rowntree will explain how you can use marginal gains to great effect in your studies and life.

Parents: notes
Dear Parent or Carer,
The strategies within this course are designed to help your child reflect on the way they learn and make improvements for the future.
This specific course is focused on the application of the Marginal Gains concept. Your child will learn how to analyse their performance, identify areas for improvement and decide on clear actions that will deliver improved results. You may find that you would also benefit from taking the course. If so, then you can decide whether to take the course in tandem with your child or independently. When sitting together, I recommend you also take the course, rather than watching and advising your child. Your child will find great inspiration from your participation and seeing you approach the concept from a different stage in life.
We wish you all the best in supporting your child. The very act of you reading this text, infers that you have your child’s best interests in mind. I’m sure they will benefit massively from your help, support and encouragement.
Best,
Sander de Groot
Head of Training
