What is Learning 4 Life?
This is a course designed for children in Years 5 to 8. Each unit has enough material to cover at least one 40 minute session. The material enhances a whole school approach to Education for Social Responsibility, Well-Being and Skills for life.
The course is skills based and and hopes to encourage young people to cope with the hurdles of the 21st century comfortably and finding reward in their lives whilst engraining a respect for a sustainable future
Previously PSHE work has tended to focus on warning children what NOT to do. This covers all of the requirements for PSHE and takes a more positive line in encouraging practical skills.
Aims of the course
The fundamental aims of the course are to promote the “Components” of Education for Social Responsibility:
*Well-being
*Knowledge
*Responsibility
*Rights
*Intelligent behaviour
*Opportunity

The course takes three forms:
