Promoting Alternative Thinking Strategies (PATHS)
Exciting Opportunity Available
Would you like to develop Promoting Alternative Thinking Strategies (PATHS) in your school from September 2012?
Is improving emotional health and well being a priority for your school?
Would you like to develop a whole school approach which enables pupils to improve their language of feelings and develop their problem solving skills?
We have an opportunity through the Early Intervention Grant (EIG) to support up to 22 schools to develop PATHS through a whole school approach from September 2012 and we would like to give you the opportunity to nominate your school.
Promoting Alternative Thinking Strategies (PATHS) is an evidence based early intervention programme. It was designed over twenty years ago by Professors' Greenberg and Kushche to support the development of self-control, emotional awareness, and the interpersonal problem-solving skills of 5 to 11 year olds. As a whole school approach PATHS has been designed to promote emotional and social competencies and reduce aggression and behaviour problems.
Results from a pilot of PATHS in Norfolk schools in 2011 found that it made significant positive differences in pupil's aggression and disruptive behaviour, concentration, attention, social and emotional competence.
