Friday 18th October was the first of our Life and Soul Days. A few years a go students fed back that PSHE lessons every week were boring and repetitive. After consulting with the Student Council we decided to have a number of one off days that cover a range of areas that prepare our students for life, that may not be covered by the National Curriculum.

The areas covered on Friday ranged from Energy drinks to Cyber Safety to Healthy Relationships to Finance to Careers to Mental Health to Study Skills to House Competitions. 

I ran a session myself on Soft Skills with a Year 8 group that I thoroughly enjoyed. The importance of being Emotionally as well as Academically Intelligent should never be underestimated in both the workplace and in life in general.
