Tackling anxiety and depression - building resilience

(1)
Young people are faced with so many issues today. It is a national issue, young people crumbling under the pressure. Anxiety/depression are continuing to overwhelm our students. I've put together this resource to help understand what it is, to help talk about the issues and using a 6 domain of resilience to get students thinking about how they can overcome these (and other mental health) issues.
Personal Finances - Savings

Personal Finances - Savings

(1)
Students understand the importance of saving for the future by looking at how a Current Account works, a brief description of the main savings accounts and an analysis of Needs v Wants. Links to Barclays LifeSkills - You can tailor this to suit your own needs. I have used the Budget Game which is produced by Barclays as the lesson that follows this - hence why I have linked a homework piece for this lesson to help prepare students for this.

Knife Crime: London epidemic fatal stabbings

(0)
Given the significant rise in fatal stabbings in London, I wanted to provide KS5 students with some basic first aid advice about how to apply first aid as a first responder. This tutor PSHEE session also provides some discussion points around the law, prevalence of attacks, data analysis from Met Police. It is also interesting to ask students what is needed to break this cycle of young people entering youth gang culture/knife crimes.
