Emotional Wellbeing
Slough has committed to emotional wellbeing as one of their priorities for 2018/2019. There are a range of activities and services in place in and across Slough to support emotional wellbeing of our staff and students in school. We will be updating on this page as these projects evolve over the coming months.
The Choices Programme
The Choices Programme is a modular scheme of work delivered across key stages two and three with sessions that build week-by-week. The sessions are designed to provoke challenging conversations and bolster personal resilience. The result is a fun, interactive learning experience that uses a combination of immersive technology and engaging activities to explore complex ideas, while providing opportunities to critically reflect and develop strategies for everyday life.
UK Youth Parliament
The UK Youth Parliament (UKYP) gives the young people of the UK an opportunity to be involved in a democratic process at a national level; it represents no party political view. There are currently 300 elected Members of Youth Parliament (MYPs). UKYP has a rolling programme of activities across the year, including leadership training, an annual conference, House of Commons sitting and regional meetings. Nationally, the views of young people are represented in the UKYP manifesto, which contains statements on the issues MYPs think are most important. To view the UKYP manifesto, please go to www.ukyouthparliament.org.uk.
