A label that hasn't changed much
Maybe you've got a label already, and it hasn't changed much at home. Maybe you're on a waiting list, or you've decided not to go down that road.
You know your child is bright.So why is every day such a struggle?So why is every day such a struggle?

It's a skills gap, and skills can be built.
VAST Families is a coach-guided, app-delivered programme that strengthens the attention, memory and processing skills behind everyday school struggles.
No diagnosis requiredNo medication involved
The Problem
You don't need a diagnosis to know something isn't clicking.
The daily reality is the same
Homework battles, lost focus, big reactions to small things, and a child who is starting to believe they're just not clever enough.
What a label often misses
Attention, working memory, processing speed and reading fluency are built skills, not fixed traits. When they're underdeveloped, everyday learning feels like running uphill, whatever the diagnosis does or doesn't say.

A Better Name for a Brilliantly Different Mind
Varied
Their attention moves fast. It notices more.
Attention
Not absent. Abundant.
Stunning
Creativity, energy and spark.
Talent
Real potential, waiting to be developed.
For too long, children have been defined by what they struggle with. Focus. Sitting still. Organisation. Behaviour. Schoolwork.
But that is not the whole story.
VAST changes the lens. It sees a child's attention not as broken, but as fast-moving, wide-ranging and full of possibility.
Then it builds the skills that help that mind work better: attention control, working memory, processing speed, coordination and emotional regulation.
Not fixing children. Building the skills that let them harness what already makes them extraordinary.
The Plan
Personalised To Find Your Child's Full Potential.
Three steps. Personalised to your child. Done at home, guided by a coach.
01
Assess
A short, structured assessment in the app maps exactly which underlying skills (attention, memory, processing speed) are underdeveloped.
02
Coach & Train
A coach-guided, app-delivered programme, personalised to your child's profile and done at home in short daily sessions.
03
Track & Celebrate
Progress is re-measured on the same assessments every few weeks, so your family sees the trajectory, not just hopes for one.
Built on the part of the brain that ties everything else together.
The cerebellum's wider role
Once thought to only manage balance and movement, we now know it plays a central role in attention, working memory, processing speed and reading fluency.
50,000+ users
Data from more than 50,000 participants informs how the programme is personalised and how progress is measured.
Science by Zing
VAST Families is delivered by Zing Performance, drawing on 25 years of programme delivery and data from more than 50,000 users, so your child's plan is built on evidence, not guesswork.
25 years of delivery
The methodology behind VAST has been refined across a quarter of a century of programme delivery.
A dedicated coach, at home
Your family is guided through a personalised, app-based programme built around your child's specific profile.

VAST Families is an educational, skill-building programme. It does not diagnose or treat any medical or neurodevelopmental condition, and isn't a substitute for professional medical advice. What it does is measurably build the cognitive skills (attention, memory, processing speed and reading fluency) that underpin how children learn, focus and cope. Families with an existing diagnosis are welcome and often find the programme complementary to the support they already have in place.
These results are based on the average of the benefits experienced and measured for all users of these programs. However, every brain responds differently hence these results cannot be guaranteed. Some may experience even greater results while others experience less.

What families say about us
“My son was behind with his reading. Now his reading has improved so much! He also tells me that he finds it much easier to understand all subjects at school. Zing has also improved his ability to organise himself in the mornings (which was a big issue).”
Yara GrantGoogle review
“My 10 year old has struggled with balance as well as fluency in reading and short term recall. After consistently using the Zing Performance program for 3 months she says that she is enjoying reading, her balance has greatly improved, and her overall confidence is better.”
Betsy WittGoogle review
“Zing has been a gamechanger for my 13-year old son. When I asked him what he had noticed since starting the program, he simply said, “There is more space in my brain.””
Krista JackGoogle review
“My daughter just finished her one year on Zing. She was a slow reader and did not like it much. She has improved considerably her reading and comprehension skills. But she is also more responsible, more organized and more confident and now she is really enjoying school every day!”
Leda ArdeleanuGoogle review
“Learning has always been a struggle for her, especially under the pressure of exams - but Zing has completely turned that around. For the first time, she’s experiencing real clarity and recall in her current GCSE exams.”
Yvonne J FoxGoogle review
“My son has been doing Zing for three months now and I'm over the moon about his improvements! His attention has developed, his comprehension has skyrocketed and he is more organized.”
