Programme of Study for Years 5 and 6

This two-year programme of study will allow students to individually grow and develop socially and emotionally. The core academic subjects are necessary but social, emotional and behavioural skills underlie almost every aspect of school, home and community life, including effective learning and getting on with other people. They are fundamental to school improvement. Where children have good skills in these areas, and are educated within an environment supportive to emotional health and well-being, they will be motivated to, and equipped to be effective and successful learners and also:

  • Make and sustain friendships
  • Deal with and resolve conflict effectively and fairly
  • Solve problems with others or by themselves
  • Manage strong feelings such as frustration, anger and anxiety
  • Be able to promote calm and optimistic states that promote the achievement of goals
  • Recover from setbacks and persist in the face of difficulties
  • Work and play cooperatively
  • Compete fairly and win and lose with dignity and respect for competitors
  • Recognise and stand up for their rights and the rights of others
  • Understand and value the differences and commonalities between people, respecting the right of others to have beliefs and values different from their own
