Support for Emotional & Social Development

We provide support for pupils to improve their emotional and social development in the following ways:

• Pupils with SEN are encouraged to be part of the school council
• Pupils with SEN are also encouraged to be part of after school clubs to promote teamwork/building friendships etc.
• We have Teaching Assistants that are trained in delivering therapeutic interventions within school.   The areas of emotional difficulties that we provide for are: specified social skills; friendships and relationships and anger management.
• Pupils who struggle with social situations may be invited to attend Break time and Lunchtime Clubs. These clubs support the children in managing unstructured social time.
• We work closely with the Emotional Wellbeing Team who support individual children and deliver staff training.

We have a zero tolerance approach to bullying.
