Curriculum for Excellence: Health and Wellbeing
Reflection Tools
Learning in health and wellbeing ensures that children and young people develop the knowledge and understanding, skills, capabilities and attributes which they need for mental, emotional, social and physical wellbeing now and in the future.
Each establishment, working with partners, should take a holistic approach to promoting health and wellbeing, one that takes account of the stage of growth, development and maturity of each individual, and the social and community context.
To support services in taking forward the health and wellbeing framework 6 reflection tools have been developed for use by ALL STAFF.
Various styles have been used in developing the tools to allow for the diverse needs of individuals and services.
Reflection Tools:
- Reflection Tool 1: Responsibility of ALL
- Reflection Tool 2: Organisational Audit of Learning & Teaching in Health & Wellbeing
- Reflection Tool 3: An in-depth study of Learning & Teaching in Health & Wellbeing
- Reflection Tool 4: Cohesion and Progression
- Reflection Tool 5: Curriculum for Excellence Organisers: Mapping the Connection
- Reflection Tool 6: Staff Discussion Task
Awareness raising sessions will be arranged to support the School Health and Wellbeing Co-ordinators and other service providers to continue taking forward the framework. I am also happy to attend school cluster meetings if required.
