Engaging & adaptable for SEMH support.
“I rely on Life Lessons extensively to support my small group interventions on critical topics such as hate crime, knife crime, diversity, discrimination, and online safety. The ready-made materials allow me to quickly select resources tailored to my students, who are primarily visual learners, and the engaging videos and discussion questions spark meaningful conversations. The platform is user-friendly, making it easy to navigate and adapt sessions based on safeguarding concerns or specific group dynamics. The weekly “In the News” lessons are particularly impactful, as they use real-world examples to make the content more relatable and engaging for students. This approach fosters deeper understanding and participation, especially when discussing sensitive or complex topics.
Looking ahead, I’m planning to expand into areas such as friendships, relationships, and intimate relationships, where Life Lessons will continue to provide valuable support. Additionally, it’s helping us address an increasing need for Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) support, bridging the gap even though we’re not an SEMH-focused provision. Life Lessons has become a valuable resource for addressing critical issues and fostering both personal and social growth among my students.” Pupil Support Assistant at a Special Education school.
