What is Social and Emotional Learning?
School is not only about reading, writing and arithmetic. It’s also about making friends, learning how to work with others, and knowing how to be more responsible for yourself.
Knowing how to manage feelings and get on with others are important skills for everyone. This kind of learning starts in early childhood with parents and carers as children’s most important first teachers.
Research has found that teaching children social and emotional skills at school as well as at home makes a positive difference to their wellbeing. Social and emotional skills help school children settle in the classroom and get on with learning.
Useful skills to learn include:
Coping with frustrations or worries
Getting along with others
Solving problems
Self Regulating
