Description
We will help your new starting year 8s make sense of the new challenges that await them as they transition into a new environment. This fun and interactive experience will teach pupils key practical tools to make their transitions a smoother process. By the end of this workshop, pupils will have a sense of control and confidence as they look forward to this exciting step in their educational journey.
Routine
We explore the importance of creating a ‘big school’ routine and how this differs slightly from primary school. We examine from ‘bedtime to first bell and everything in between.’ Within section, we will highlight the vital role sleep plays in well-being and focus. Finally, pupils will be quizzed on key components of a school timetable as they attempt to make sense of this new change. (We will bespoke this to your school.)
Responsibility
Pupils will understand the importance of taking responsibility as they get older and more independent. This will involve a practical element in particular around managing workloads and prioritisation.
Relationships
We explore the new friendships year 8s are building and some of the challenges they might face such as peer pressure and how to overcome this. We highlight to pupils the connection between thoughts-emotions-action and the power of taking a step back to examine different perspectives of the same situations.
