Watch MM10 in action — click to play ▶
MM10 is a structured, daily wellbeing programme for schools. In just 5-10 minutes at the start of the day, children experience a mix of mindfulness, breathing, movement and emotional regulation activities – all delivered through a simple portal.
No training. No planning. No specialist equipment. Teachers just open the portal, press play, and MM10 does the rest.
MM10 has been piloted across primary and SEND specialist settings in Lancashire and Greater Manchester, funded by GM Moving and the Eric Wright Charitable Trust, with genuinely moving results:
95% of children want to continue MM10
87% of teachers report calmer, more settled pupils
87% of teachers would recommend MM10
100% said no special staff or training needed

Built Across Every Tier Of Educational Support
MM10 scales with need rather than being one-size-fits-all:
Universal – whole-class daily regulation. Every pupil, every morning.
Targeted – small groups, breakfast clubs, regulation rooms and form time for SEMH support.
Targeted Plus – the Technique Selector, Child Profile and Regulation Log link together, personalising support and feeding directly into ISPs.
Specialist – piloted in SEND specialist settings, with accessible visuals and predictable routines.
For SENCOs: ISP-ready data, a Technique Selector for building personalised plans, emotion check-ins, parent partnership evidence and multi-agency-friendly records – everything needed for annual reviews and governor reporting, without building it from scratch.
For TAs and therapists: the Technique Selector, Child Profile Sheet and Individual Regulation Log let you personalise support for each pupil by emotion and need, with every session recorded as usable evidence.
MM10 also maps directly to all 7 themes of the statutory Inclusion Strategy every school must publish by 31 December 2026, giving schools ready-made evidence rather than a policy-writing exercise.

Who Is MM10 For?
MM10 has been designed for:
- Primary schools — as a daily morning routine that settles children and prepares them for learning
- SEND settings — supporting emotional regulation in an inclusive, whole-class approach that doesn’t single anyone out
- Breakfast clubs — a perfect 10 minute start to the day before the school bell, helping children arrive calm and ready to learn
- School Games Organisers — a simple, evidence-based programme you can offer to schools across your area
- Family Hubs — supporting community wellbeing and extending the programme beyond the school gates
- Therapists and support workers — a practical, evidence-based tool to use alongside therapeutic and pastoral support
- Parents and families — resources are available on request to extend the programme into the home
It is aligned with the priorities of the SEND White Paper and the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Act 2026.
Hear From The Founder Of MM10
Hi, I’m Gaynor Gallagher, founder of Calm & Connected CIC and UK Yoga.
Before creating MM10, I spent over 20 years working in education — as a teacher, School Sports Coordinator, Head of Department and Pastoral Lead. So I’ve seen first-hand what classrooms really look like day to day.
What I kept seeing was children arriving not ready to learn — anxious, dysregulated, distracted. And teachers doing their best, but already on the back foot within the first ten minutes of the day.
If children aren’t regulated, they can’t access learning properly. That’s not just a teaching issue — it’s a readiness issue. And that’s exactly why I created MM10.
Calm & Connected CIC is the not-for-profit organisation I co-founded to make evidence-based wellbeing programmes like MM10 accessible to every school, regardless of budget. UK Yoga continues alongside it, offering yoga and mindfulness training and courses for schools and educators.
