The assembly looks at how celebrities are encouraging people to speak about mental health, the on-line support available, challenges that can encourage a more positive mindset and how highlighting is key to success.

This assembly looks at how a behaviour intention creates an interpretation that leaves an impression and how all are linked together. The assembly addresses specific chosen behaviours as well as looks at all three (intention, interpretation and impression) independently of each other and then together.

This assembly looks at the theme “Choose Respect”. Key ideas include understanding that bullying is a behaviour choice, respect in general, how can disagree respectfully, what could be seen as disrespectful as well as how we can choose respect on-line, in our community, in our school and in person.

This assembly has been created where the British Values of law, democracy, individual liberty, respect and tolerance are addressed. This leads to a final slide on “Togetherness”. The assembly asks questions that can either be rhetorical where students are reflective or answered if preferred. This was previously an Advent (British Values) assembly, but I have edited it so it just looks at British Values.

It starts with four questions for students to privately reflect on and finishes with the same four questions where we will guide students in terms of a response.

This assembly looks at the theme “Change starts with us”. It encourages students to reflect on how certain behaviour choices can contribute to hurting people. It also promotes the idea that if we all make some changes, we will all benefit, supporting this years anti-bullying theme. Key ideas include how we can change the impact of social media, verbal and physical choices we make and how being non-judgemental will lead to happier lives. The key messages are about making the right choices and how if we all make changes, we can all enjoy a more positive life. There are some additional notes at the bottom of some of the slides.
