Emotions Talk had been used in P5 for several years by Ms Rhona Kennedy very successfully so Depute Headteacher Ms Carolyn Anstruher arranged a CPD session for all staff earlier in 2016 and it has now been adopted throughout the school. Below are examples of how P6 have been talking about emotions – what can trigger emotions and how to deal with them.

Ms Gaffney and Ms Dodds have led additional training sessions for staff. The school has also been very well supported by the Parent Council Health and Wellbeing Group who helped fund the purchase of many books and resources to help deliver the approach.
