PKC Nurture

Nurture | Outside with one of our pupils for 20 mins of football. Time earned due to their commitment to attending English all week, and trying their hardest when they find learning and sitting still difficult. ⚽️ @PKCnurture #movementbreaks #rewards

🧱 Nurture 🧱 Sometimes young people just need a bit of time to regulate before they are ready to learn. One of our S1’s built this Lego figure today before happily heading off to class. @PKCnurture

Fantastic afternoon at Coupar Angus Primary schools Nurture Afternoon for families. Nurture Leads shared their journey to date ✨ Learners presented some of their learning on Emotion Works as part of their focus on #NurturePrinicple4. Delicious cakes from the parents too 😋👏🏻

Following our school network session yesterday we are shining the Nurture Spotlight on @OnlineFairview. As a school there has been an emphasis on 'Language Matters', a key part of the #FairviewWay focusing in on the vital role language plays in shaping how learners feel & learn🌟

Here at @PKCnurture we've been busy updating our Nurture Principle trainings. Four years into our journey we are delighted to be in a position to share excellent practice examples from our PKC schools throughout 🌟🌟#BringingNurtureToLife #LearningTogether #TheoryintoPractice

Yesterday we met with our Phase 1-3 schools, who updated the network on current developments in school. Following the session were shining the Nurture spotlight on Microsoft Reflect- a theme of the session, we heard how the tool is used to support & review wellbeing in classrooms
