Perseverance Assembly

Perseverance Assembly

(1)
Perseverance is a quality that we try and instil in all of our pupils in relation to way that pupils approach their learning and how they navigate their social interactions beyond the classroom. This assembly provides an excellent opportunity to present pupils with challenges and encourage perseverance. It also highlights the importance that we focus on moral perseverance: following the good path in the face of challenges. This assembly uses pencils to convey how something seemingly boring and insignificant can in fact be quite incredible if you think outside the box and have patience. It focuses on Dalton Ghetti’s carvings made of pencils and includes the parable about the Pencil maker to illustrate to pupils how to succeed in school.

Online Safety & Emojis Assembly

Online Safety & Emojis Assembly

(0)
Communication in the present age goes far beyond typing long text messages. Who knew that one could have a meaningful conversation without any words? A glance at social media feeds or the text messages on chat groups show a number of smiley faces, flying hearts, hugs, laugh out loud. These little naughty digital faces have become popular and inseparable part of our daily communication. They come to our rescue when words fall short; through irony or humour they help in conveying our emotions in a unique way. Since it’s the 21st century and all, there are countless emoji at our fingertips to mark this time of year. This assembly is all about the history of emoji’s and the power they hold to help us better communicate in the 21st Century online world. Admittingly, many of us - children and adults alike - have grown to rely upon social media and messaging platforms to communicate with others. This assembly equips pupils with the tools to better manage their online communications, how best to use emojis in a safe and control manner, and notice moments when it is probably wise to just talk to someone in person! The assembly lasts between 15 - 20 minutes, including a short ‘Guess the Movie’ game towards the end. The assembly is very easy to follow and is also editable. Enjoy! :-)

Equality & Cultural Diversity Audit
DuaneBrooksDuaneBrooks

Equality & Cultural Diversity Audit

(0)
Help instil a cross-curricular sense of inclusivity, and question and adapt what you’re teaching so your curriculum represents the diversity seen in modern Britain in terms of gender and sexuality. If you want to change your pupils’ understanding and attitudes around gender, race, disability religion, LGBTQ+ inclusivity, you’ll need to make changes across your whole curriculum. Keeping topics about gender and sexuality confined to a small number of PSHE or RSE lessons is unlikely to have any significant effect. Use this Equality and Diversity curriculum audit tool to help you and your colleagues think about how you can embed these topics across all areas of learning.
Mental Health & Wellbeing Audit

Mental Health & Wellbeing Audit

(0)
Schools have an important part to play in the support system of all those in their care, and particularly in the promotion of mental well-being. Their efforts to promote the physical and mental health of the student population can positively reinforce pupils’ attainment and achievement, improving their well-being and enabling them to thrive and achieve their full potential. The focus on children’s mental health, though, serves as an important reminder to us that we must couple support for staff well-being with the same ambitions we have for our pupils. If we don’t, we will be letting down both cohorts. Are you currently hitting the mark? Use this audit tool to assess the quality of your current policies and processes for supporting staff and pupil mental health and wellbeing.
