Teaching and Learning
Student wellbeing
We understand that for a child to be able to learn, they need to feel connected, safe, valued and heard.
These ideas are embodied by school-wide language around wellbeing, and embedded in daily practices such as emotional literacy tools, co-constructed classroom agreements, and growth mindset tools such as the “Learning Pit”.
Our weekly age-appropriate wellbeing lessons are built upon each year, and include emotional literacy, friendship dynamics, problem solving, help seeking, social skills, body image, gender, respectful relationships and sexuality education.
BNWPS is a Respectful Relationships Lead School, having implemented our whole school approach to promoting equity and respect through all aspects of our operations since 2017.
