Learning about our own emotional wellbeing is an integral part of the curriculum at Christ Church CEP Academy.
Children are taught about how their wellbeing can be positively and negatively impacted by their lifestyle and by events around them. They are taught how to recognise changes in their own wellbeing and taught strategies to manage their emotions.
The aim is to enable our children to flourish into confident and emotionally resilient individuals.
