A 10 week programme of Study that can be delivered as part of a Geography or Life Skills Scheme of work.

A module of work to support students who have been excluded from school; An ideal piece of work for delivery to those students who have received more than 1 FTE who will form a targeted group within your provision.
The 8-9 week module can be delivered by a Mentor, Tutor, LSA or more specialist teacher both in 1-1 sessions or with targeted groups of students. It could also be delivered through a Life Skills or PSHE Programme - I originally wrote the module for delivery by PSHE teachers in a KS3 PRU.
The key focus for the module is:
Looking at an ideal future
Locus of control
Appropriate decision making
Stop, Think, Go
How to handle stress
