Why social and emotional learning matters

Social and emotional learning (SEL) teaches children to understand their emotions and to appreciate the differences between people. Along the way it builds self-awareness, character and emotional intelligence.

The course helps children find constructive ways to process their emotions and treat others with respect. It starts from the idea that every child needs to be recognised and supported as they are, so sessions are built around a sense of psychological safety.

What the course works on

Four areas run through the 20 weeks, and children practise them together in structured group work.

  • Self-esteem and self-awareness

    Learning that each person has their own strengths and talents, and that they’re worth celebrating.

  • Positive attitudes and relationships

    Practising constructive feedback and building a supportive atmosphere with the rest of the group.

  • Coping with social pressure

    Seeing differences and diversity as a strength, and building the resilience to handle pressure from others.

  • Why relationships matter

    Understanding the part relationships play in life and at school, and how they support learning.
