How we deliver our Know Yourself, Grow Yourself curriculum

Know Youself, Grow Yourself sessions

We teach key elements of personal and social education every day through reminding children of good manners, kindness and consideration, but we also set aside a lesson every week to focus on specific skills and knowledge.  Lessons are based on materials from the highly regarded Cambridgeshire Primary Personal Development Programme which utilises a lot of discussion, role play, stories, games and scenarios to engage children and enable them to relate the topics to their own lives.  

Candle Time

Each week, every class holds a reflective session known as 'Candle Time'. This is a fifteen-minute circle time (with a candle!) with a specific focus - ranging from Online Safety or getting help in an emergency to friendship skills and belonging in our class tribe.
