The Thrive Approach is a specific way of working with all children that helps to develop their social and emotional well-being, enabling them to engage with life and learning. It supports them in becoming more self-assured, capable and adaptable. It can also address any troubled, or troubling, behaviours providing a firm foundation for academic attainment.
Positive relationships are at the heart of Thrive. We use these relationships, together with play and creative activities, to give children key experiences at each different stage of their development. All classes access activities within their classroom practice identified as a class action plan. Some children, who have been identified as part of a Thrive assessment, access intervention sessions with a trained practitioner.
Our Thrive practitioners, Ms Oelman and Miss Smith, deliver Thrive sessions to build on children's emotional and social development. They work in partnership with families to ensure children can:
- Feel good about themselves and know that they matter
- Increase their sense of security and trust
- Increase their emotional well-being
- Improve their capacity to be creative and curious
- Increase their self-esteem and confidence to learn
- Learn to recognise and regulate their feelings
- Learn to think before behaving in a certain way
