Results day can bring a mix of emotions, from pride and relief to disappointment, uncertainty or overwhelm.

The way adults respond can make a meaningful difference. Remaining calm, looking beyond behaviour and creating space for young people to express how they feel can help them feel supported and begin to consider what comes next.

Swipe through for five ways to support young people on results day.

When a moment becomes difficult, it can be easy to focus on the behaviour and quickly decide what it means.

But what changes when we pause and ask what the child may be experiencing?
Noise, transitions, discomfort, unexpected changes and several adults speaking at once can all shape how a moment feels.

Thrive’s Early Years Enabling Environment Reflection Tool helps practitioners look beyond the behaviour, explore what happens beforehand and consider what the child may need from the environment or the adults around them.

Start with one moment and look again.

What could the updated EYFS mean for children’s wellbeing and everyday experiences?

With greater emphasis on safeguarding, welfare and wellbeing, the updated framework gives early years teams a useful opportunity to look again at how children’s social and emotional development is supported each day.

The Thrive baton has been passed at Newington Community Primary School!

After helping to create happier, more inclusive lunchtimes, the school’s Year 6 Thrive Ambassadors have handed over to 12 newly trained pupils from Year 5.

The new ambassadors have been learning about emotional regulation, active listening and how to recognise when someone may need connection or support. Together, they will continue helping every child feel included, valued and able to enjoy a safe and happy lunchtime.

A brilliant example of pupil leadership rooted in kindness, connection and belonging.
