The EMOTION WORKS
RECOVERY PROGRAMME has now Ended
Many thanks to all the schools who took part and for your ongoing interest in our work.
The Emotion Works Recovery Programme was developed in light of the unprecedented school closures of 2020 and early 2021. Drawing on our expertise in emotional education, the programme offered a stand-alone platform of training and teaching material to help schools take a trauma-responsive and relational approach to welcoming pupils back to school and helping them to process their experiences of lockdown and the pandemic.
The Recovery Programme content can now be found in the Members Area of our main website.
We have been using Emotion Works to highlight to pupils how their bodies respond to certain emotions and strategies they can put in place when they feel their emotion cogs starting to turn. We have had really positive feedback from pupils and parents as pupils can verbalise how they are feeling and explain why.

Through the delivery and use of the Recovery Programme Emotion Works is now fully embedded across our school. The children have really embraced and love this learning - where it’s linked to many different curricular areas. The pupils confidence continues to rise and their ability to talk about and manage their emotions continues to develop too. I teach in the LCSC within our school and using the resources to support the pupils is amazing. It provides a supportive structure, consistent approach and predictable language which we use to explore their emotions, behaviours and situations. To hear the children talking about their ‘cogs’ is amazing. It's having such a positive impact on their wellbeing.

Emotion Works has worked so well for our children. We had planned to bring it in this year already, but when we returned from the first lockdown it was evident that Emotion Works was exactly what our children needed. It’s not only given them the vocabulary to discuss complex emotions they have been feeling, but has helped them to talk with their peers when they’ve had a falling out (which was regularly when we first returned) and remedy the situation. I think the children have really appreciated their teachers taking the time to show a real interest in learning how they are feeling.

A FANTASTIC SHOWCASE OF LEARNING
An astonishing 150 new schools purchased our Recovery Programme during 2020/21, with many converting to a full membership at the end of the programme.
The level of participation from new and existing members using the programme was so impressive that we held an end of programme competition to allow schools to showcase and celebrate their work.
