Our Journey to become a Thrive School
We are on our journey to become a Thrive school and currently have two members of staff who are training to become fully trained licensed Thrive Practitioners.
What is Thrive?
Thrive is a therapeutic approach to help support students with their emotional and social development. The Thrive approach offers practical strategies and techniques and is built around online assessments which identify a student’s emotional development and provides action plans for their individual needs.
Research has shown that how we behave is linked to how we feel and our emotions are linked to how we learn. By teaching students to recognise and notice these feelings and emotions, it can help with their development and learning. Students sometimes need some extra support with their emotional growth and this can be temporary or over a longer period of time. Thrive promotes their emotional and social growth by building positive relationships between a student and their peers and helps them explore and understand their feelings through various activities with a Thrive Practitioner.
