Personal, Social and Emotional Development

Personal and Social development is one of the prime areas of learning. Its focus is on the child, their well-being and how to look after themselves- mentally and physically- and how to form and manage relationships. At Errington, we follow Jigsaw. Children are supported as they learn how to identify and manage their emotions and how to engage with their peers, sharing and compromising. They also learn how to manage their own physical needs. We brush teeth daily at school and follow healthy eating. The children are provided with opportunities to try new foods and discuss what it means to be healthy and look after our bodies.
