Responses to violence in everyday life in a democratic society – approaches to social and emotional learning in schools

Welcome from Deborah Michel Graham Robb Julie Hough

Exploring ideas

Is behaviour worse now than it ever was?

‘ Young people today think of nothing but themselves. They have no reverence for parents or old age’ Peter the Hermit 1275 ‘Young people have bad manners and a contempt for authority. There is less respect for older people than ever before’ Socrates 329 BC ‘Among the rougher boys, arson is not infrequent and kleptomania is fairly rampant’ Headmaster Eton 1922

Different ways of seeing things exploring perceptions.....

All behaviour has meaning? It reflects underlying needs and has a purpose? Is inextricably linked to emotions and perceptions? Is learned and can change?

Safe and ready to learn Behaviour, and the ability to learn is affected by feelings about self and school

Can a school be a therapeutic community?

An emotionally literate school Calm, happy, welcoming and safe environment Clear set of positive values and principles Confident adults adopting a positive approach and modelling effective skills High expectations, positive rules and solution focused problem solving Valuing contributions from pupils, parents, families, community members and other agencies

What kind of learners are we hoping for?

Safe, confident, happy, valued learners? How are we developing - resilience? - autonomy? - optimism? - a sense of belonging?

Can school have a positive influence? For example, through…. values and beliefs policies systems and structures language and communication curriculum teaching approaches the learning environment

How do we value all learners?

And willing to try

Our hopes for the week ahead

A collaborative learning community Through which we can... -develop new friendships and insights -share ideas, experiences and expertise -share worries and concerns -seek positive solutions -enjoy and have fun

Make a difference – however and wherever we can..... At a personal level - in my interactions with others and in my everyday practice At an organisational level – by influencing the values, culture and systems of my school or organisation At a strategic level – by influencing others through strategic planning, policy development, professional development etc

Within a supportive culture mutual respect and mutual regard acceptance of difference tolerance of fallibility, it’s ok to make mistakes humour - laughing with each other trust, taking care of each other

We can all make a difference to the lives of children ‘If you think you are too small to make a difference - try sleeping in a room with a mosquito’ African proverb
