Do you ever feel like school focuses on academics too much and neglects the key softer skills that help us navigate life?
A reminder that London’s specialist childcare and education provider, Role Models, is running a series of Confidence & Resilience Courses this summer & autumn for children in Years 3&4 and 5-7. Courses take place at various venues across London, including La Retraite School in Clapham from Tuesday August 30th – Friday September 2nd, La Retraite School and Chelsea Academy from Saturday 17th September - Saturday 19th November and Putney High School from Monday October 24th – Thursday October 27th.
We all want children to become independent individuals who find genuine fulfillment in whatever they do in their lives. As a result, characteristics like ‘confidence’ and ‘resilience’ are desirable and they have become educational buzzwords. But how can we really develop these characteristics in young people?
Role Models' courses help children to present themselves effectively and react positively to pressure. They will teach children to value collaboration and imagination, to be unafraid of complex challenges and to develop a robust approach to setbacks. The courses include debating, public speaking, team building exercises and interview practice.
There is a maximum of 10 children per group and places do fill up fast, so it’s best to book ahead.
