🎒 Ready for a fresh start?
The start of a new school year can be a busy time for teachers and school staff. Here are 5 simple ideas to help pupils settle in, feel supported and get the new term off to a great start 👇
🌱 Ease pupils back into routines
Keep the first few days positive and give children time to settle back into school life.
🤝 Encourage teamwork
Choose games and activities that help pupils communicate, cooperate and build new friendships.
😌 Create a calm space
Give pupils somewhere quieter to take a break, reset and regulate when needed.
✏️ Think inclusively
Provide play opportunities for different abilities, interests and confidence levels.
🏃♀️ Get children moving
Make the most of your outdoor space to encourage exploration, creativity and learning, while helping pupils burn off energy and refocus.
