Life Learning

We have a dedicated Subject Lead with responsibility for the Personal, Social, Health, and Economic, education of all our pupils. We call this ‘Life Learning’. This means that from age three to eleven every single pupil has someone committed to nurturing their personal growth. Whole school assemblies and class circle time allow opportunities for the children to reflect upon their behaviour, their feelings and their rights and responsibilities as citizens.

The children experience Meditation and Peer Massage each alternating Monday morning to encourage mindfulness and to feel grounded and calm. From time to time the children might practice Niksen, and teachers may choose to use these techniques to provide the children with a little space to breathe in their busy school day, if they feel it will put them in the best frame of mind for their next lesson.
